Peter Obi: ‘Nonsense, Thoughtless Talk’ – Oby Ezekwesili Blasts Lai Mohammed Over Treason Allegation

Oby Ezekwesili

Former Education Minister Oby Ezekwesili has slammed the Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, for alleging treason against Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate Peter Obi.

WITHIN NIGERIA reported that the Federal Government warned Peter Obi against inciting Nigerians to violence over the outcome of the presidential election.

According to Mohammed, Obi is wrong to seek legal redress over the outcome of the presidential election while also inciting people to violence.

In a series of tweets on Tuesday, Oby Ezekwesili called Mohammed’s treason accusation “nonsense” and “thoughtless talk.”

A reasonable person, she says, will not waste time worrying about people like Lia Mohammed, whom she calls a peddler of false accusations.

She wrote:

Nonsense. No reasonable persons in the world ever waste their time worrying about peddlers of false accusations. I think the Minister Lai Mohammed of the Federal Ministry of Information and Culture @FMICNigeria is trying to outdo his APC colleagues in thoughtless talks.

It is the height of sophistry, thoughtless talk and abuse of power for the Minister of Information and Culture @FMICNigeria to throw accusation of Treason on Political Opponents who have taken the right Judicial Processes in contesting the result of an election. Stop it!

Your @NigeriaGov @MBuhari conducted a fatally flawed election and instead of circumspection, you want to cower the citizens and your opponents who are aggrieved? What happened to Wisdom in knowing that this is the wrong moment to abuse your power of incumbency? Get wisdom now.
