I Disagree With Osinbajo Over Categorization Of Hate Speech - Ayodele Fayose by Flagilator: 5:13pm On Aug 19, 2017 |
Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, disagreed with Acting President Yemi Osinbajo over his categorisation of hate speech as an act of terrorism. At a security summit in Abuja on Thursday, August 17, Yemi Osinbajo said the federal government would no longer tolerate inflammatory statements. But in a statement which Lere Olayinka, his spokesman, issued on his behalf, Fayose alleged that the development was a plot to silence the opposition. He said since Osinbajo’s pronouncement is not backed by any legislation, Nigerians would resist it. Fayose, who said he is not in support of hate speeches, added that there was the need to caution the federal government “on the danger inherent in the blanket categorisation of hate speech as treasonable.” “I wish to express concern over the pronouncement of the Acting President, Prof Yemi Osinbajo that hate speech will henceforth be treated as terrorism,” Fayose said. “While I am totally against hate speech and will support any effort to curb it, it is important to caution the federal government on the danger inherent in the blanket categorisation of hate speech as treasonable. “I make bold to say that saying the truth concerning the country and its rulers cannot be termed as hate speech. 1 Like
