A group, Free Nigeria Movement, has accused Nobel laureate, Wole Soyinka, of a ‘selective witch-hunt’ over his reaction to the comments of the vice presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Datti Baba-Ahmed.In a recent interview on Channels Television, Mr Baba-Ahmed insisted that his interpretation of a section of the constitution was the right interpretation and that anyone who swears in the president-elect, Bola Tinubu, as declared by INEC, is ending democracy in Nigeria.
Since the declaration of the APC candidate as the winner of the election, opposition parties and their supporters have not only rejected the results, but they are also for the cancellation, accusing the electoral commission of flouting its own guidelines. “The Prof. should be a father to all Nigerians irrespective of ethnicity, religion, party or social affiliations,” he said in a statement on Monday. “However, he has betrayed the trust of many Nigerians who before now hold him in high esteem.
Mr Moses, whose group has protested the results of the 25 February presidential election, also called for the boycott of Mr Soyinka’s literary materials.
