Datti to answer for criminal incitement and sedition – Tinubu’s camp

The Chairman of the Edo State Media and Publicity Directorate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council (PCC), John Mayaki, has warned the Vice Presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Datti Baba-Ahmed, to retract his statement regarding the handover of the president-elect, Bola Tinubu, or face legal action.

POLITICS NIGERIA reports that Datti had challenged Tinubu’s victory in a television interview with an assertion that the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Kayode Ariwoola, should not conduct the handover of Tinubu on May 29, 2023.

But reacting in a statement, Mayaki said, “It is totally unbecoming for somebody to risk all of that just because his wet dream of seizing power was denied by the majority of Nigerians and for him to feel emboldened to go on television to spread inciting and seditious comments. This cannot just end at words; we must take action to ensure that there is never a repeat of such thoughtless action capable of throwing our country into chaos.”

“Datti-Ahmed must offer an immediate retraction, complete with an apology to the APC and Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu or be brought in to answer for criminal incitement and sedition.”
