Dino Melaye, former Senator representing Kogi West, has
warned President Muhammadu Buhari against attempting to arrest the Bishop of
Sokoto Catholic Diocese, Mathew Kukah, over his Christmas message.
Kukah had accused President Buhari
of crass nepotism like never experienced in the history of Nigeria.
Bishop Kukah, in his Christmas message titled, “A Nation in
Search of Vindication” delivered in Sokoto on Friday, noted that President
Buhari had succeeded in sacrificing the dreams of Nigerians on the altar of
nepotism by pursuing Northern hegemony.
According to him, there could have been a coup or war in the country if a non-Nothern Muslim became president and does some of the things Buhari had done.
Following the development, the Muslim Rights Concern, MURIC,
launched an attack on the Bishop.
MURIC accused Kukah of being a first class blackmailer.
Reacting, Melaye in a Tweet warned Buhari against arresting
or embarrassing Bishop Kukah.
He also said the President will be shown that the government
isn’t owned by him but the people if he fails to heed to the warning.
“Arrest or try to embarass Bishop Kukah and we will prove to
you that Government is not owned by you but the people.
“They want to scare every body. Kill fear and speak the
truth to power,” he wrote.
