Certificate Scandal: Sowore Hits Back At Melaye over Jail Comment by yns4real: 10:07pm On Mar 25, 2017 |
The publisher of the online news portal, Sahara Reporters (SR) Omoyele Sowore has reacted to the jail comment made on twitter by the embattled Nigerian senator, Senator Dino Melaye. Mr Melaye had earlier boasted of jailing Mr Sowore for allegedly libeling him with 1st Degree certificate scandal. It would be recalled that Mr Sowore had in the past few days been digging deep into Mr Melaye's education background through the SR platform. The former had alleged that the latter did not graduate from Ahmadu Bello University, a prestigious university based in Kaduna, Nigeria. Read Sowore's Facebook Statement below: Folks: It was brought to my attention earlier that Nigerian Senator Dino Melaye promised to 'send me to jail' over the recent unraveling of his questionable educational background. While some are worried, appalled, alarmed and concerned and even scared about this declaration, it had me thinking differently. I am a Nigerian citizen who had been through torture, humiliations, and incarceration by dictators in uniform between 1992-1999 before I eventually left Nigeria. I have never doubted the power of justice over legalities. That a Nigerian Senator in a democratic era could make this proclamation is indeed a sign that our democratic transition was a farce, particular when you've now noticed that Mr. Melaye was sitting at the feet of one of Nigeria's worst military dictators, Ibrahim Babangidajust a week ago. One of Babangida's worst crimes against humanity was the assassination of notable investigative journalists of our time, Dele Giwa, by way of a parcel bomb. Another thing Melaye shares in common with Babangida and his killer squad was using libel lawsuits to silence inquisitions In the 80's Gani Fawehimi was found liable of libeling the killers of Dele Giwa and asked to pay damages to Halilu Akilu. Here is how I am different and also not different, I am not going to run away from criminals running the Nigerian political space until they are defeated, and their ideologies of greed, bloodiness, and avarice are entirely abandoned and discredited forever (Apology to Bob Marley). If it takes my life, so be it. If it means another unjust ruling asking for damages for thieves. So be it. We must take our space back from the 10 percenters, drug dealers, certificate forgers, money launderers, political manipulators, and assassins.

DocHMD: you that knows who is a coward and who is not, kindly start by setting up your own media out fit and try criticize just one ward chairman in Nigerian and lets see how long you are going to last - not to talk of big time politicians like saraki, dino, and them governors and senators that sowore has showed us all the skeletons in their cupboards and still walks free on the streets of Nigeria!

God bless Omoyele Swore. I love you for the fact that you always fight against politicians irrespective of their party. It's a pity that those who support politicians are the ones that are quick to condemn the Nation for bad leadership. Continue your good work. Many young journalists are looking up to being like you. 114 Likes 7 Shares |

If Dino Didnt Posses Any Certificate, It Too Bad For Him. But Why Is Dis Happening Now? Is It About Magu? Cos If My Memory Serves Me Right This Guy Started From House Of Reps And Now He Is In D Senate Then Comes The Certificate Issue.

Many choose to called him coward yet I choose to call him front liner.Those who remembered well the power of media house. The Tell news magazine.. who went far into the depth ocean to bring into our hearing what is going on within government circle then.1992-1998. Sowore has gone into past corner of Melaye, that he has what I would call mutilated academic certificate ..Dino and ABU should prove him wrong... 49 Likes 1 Share |

dunkem21:This is why you'll know that SR is truly a voice of the voiceless not been a respecter of persons. Dino Melaye has to be silenced and removed from the Senate. He's one of the senators against the anti-corruption campaign of the present administration. Dino spearheaded the emergence of his crime partner - @Saraki as the sp. he's the number or senator that doesn't want Magu to be confirmed as efcc chair. Dino again was the one who moved the motion calling for the resignation of the comptroller general of customs simply because the man has insisted that Saraki the economic saboteur must pay the correct excise duty on the luxury vehicle he bought.

JusticeSeeker: On the other hand, Dino is the voice of the voiceless in the Senate. Dino exposed the fraudulent grass cutting dealings of the SGF. Dino rightly moved the motion for the resignation of the comptroller General because the man slighted the Senate and refused to wear his uniform. Dino ensured the EFCC boss didn't scale thru with that damning skeleton in his cupboard. The only action I frowned at is the shouting match with Senator Oluremi which they share the blame 50/50. 11 Likes 2 Shares |

nwaanambra1:Bros, why are u educating dem fools? They are just Kids and small teenagers that know nothing about past stubborn masses defenders. Just open a thread on people like gani faweyinmi and other heroes you will see how they will still abuse them without knowing what thy have done to keep dictatorship at their toes. If those guys (SR) are in nigeria, they would hv been assasinated long time ago. If Nigeria has just 10 active comrades like them, just 10? . Nigeria would hv been better far. Someone that was in nigeria for months recently, and he just left. Who touched him? no body. Even when he was arrested by lagos CP, they were quick to release thim. Why? No one that is in nigeria as an elite or politician has a clean record. They work as a cultist and many of them has a lot of skeleton in their cupboard. They know the guy can easily expose them with facts. One idiot up there saying why didnt he come to nigeria? They no nothing about him, than to shout up and down. Very useless sets of kids. No thanks to cheap data and free school wifi. 56 Likes 8 Shares |
