Human rights activist, Femi Falana , has slammed the Minister of Information, Lai Mohammed, for describing as fake news the report of the panel constituted by the Lagos State Government to investigate the Lekki massacre of protesters last year October. Falana said these in a statement titled, 'Federal Government Is Not Competent To Reject The Report Of Okuwobi Judicial Commission Of Inquiry.
"By not waiting 'for the reaction of the states', the minister has overruled the president of the republic. As if that was not enough, the minister decided to insult the Governor of Lagos State, Mr. Babajide Sanwoolu, by rejecting the report of the judicial commission instituted by him under the Tribunal of Enquiry Law of Lagos State.
Falana added,"Mr. Mohammed has described the 309-page report of a judicial tribunal as"fake news". As a lawyer of many years' standing, the minister ought to have known that it is the height of arrogant contempt to describe the report of a Judicial Commission of Enquiry constituted under the Tribunal of Enquiry Law as"fake".
"However, it is pertinent to point out that Mr. Mohammed's comment on the report lacks originality as it is a mere regurgitation of the jaundiced views of a couple of aggrieved individuals. "In December 2015, the Nigerian Army massacred hundreds of Shiites in Zaria and hurriedly buried their bodies in a mass grave at Mango in Kaduna State on the orders of the then Chief of Army Staff.
"Finally, Mr. Mohammed's callous comment on the cold murder of unarmed citizens at the Lekki Toll Gate is a sad reminder of his own experience under the same forces of brutalization.
Nigerian are becoming alien in their Country Land ! We all comments for comment sake . Where do we stand self. For or against the Government we didn't not benefit from...
Nothing good ever comes from anybody bearing the names 'MUHAMMAD', 'MOHAMMED' 'MUHAMMADU' E.g Liar Mohammed Muhammadu Buhari Muhammad Yusuf etc
I gave up on that Minister of Propaganda long time ago. Nothing that he says or do deserves my attention.
If you are not following me please do, i will surely follow you back
Falana you need to calm down, this one that you are acting whatever suits your interest must be implemented. Even the law you study is designed to serve some interest and you don't know.
Uncle Falana is a well known lawyer… he should be countering Uncle Lai with facts and superior logic and not this baseless attempt at starring up emotional blackmail and attack.
Not just executive rascality but absolute stupidity
Baba falana of kokoro Jobi jobi injurious injidicous judicial panel
We seriously need more of a man like this
Mr Falana address his issue stop acting like charge and bail lawyer
Mr Falana is a lawyer disprove what he prove... Why not with proof like he did.. Why jumping like you don't some acclaimed dead people testified?
Is very unfortunate that Lai Mohammed is someone’s father, and someone’s husband. This man doesn’t have conscience.
Liarmoha is a despicable rascal
Who asking d SAN to do what, I don't blame una at all. Those who came out to testify dia lives are threaten & even attacked who is protecting those ones now u want d families to come so that d evil govt will kill them abi. It will not work for una
Address the issues the minister and Nigerians raised, putting out a report that people die, and a massacre took place without any proof is an assault on our collective intelligence.
Display of insane giggles
All I see is gov trolls
As expected! Mr SAN why not address the issues raised by Lai?
There’s nothing Executive about Lie Mohammed,he’s just a bus garage opportunist.
Why is it easier to mob lunch Lai mohammed than addressing the issues raised in that Mediocre panel report?
Falana can not debate the content and issue. He had to resolve to blackmailing the person of Lai Mohammed. Falana should address every point that Lai raised in his press conference. Can we know the families of Lekki victims, if the victims are not fictitious? It’s that simple!
Rinsole_T But expecting a ‘habitual liar’ to turn a new leaf at old age looks like an elephant going through the needle’s eye. Impossicant!
Oga the law,the man is a direct descendant of Lucifer
Make una come carry El-Zarzaky lawyer, the charge and bail SAN…papa Falz wey nor get sense!😂
Nigeria should free Lai Mohammed, is a distraction,trying to create content so you guys will forget about the issues on ground.
