FG Finally Breaks Silence, Speaks On Omah Lay's Arrest In Uganda by BleedingPen: 3:03pm On Dec 15, 2020
The Nigerian government has formally taken steps to secure the release of music stars Omah Lay and Tems - who were both arrested and remanded in an Ugandan prison.

Chairman of the Nigerian Diaspora Commission, Abike Dabiri-Erewa, said the Nigerian mission in Uganda is doing everything in its power to get the singers out.

Dabiri-Erewa, in a tweet sighted by Igbere TV on her Twitter handle, wrote; “#FreeOmahLay #FreeTems . The Nigerian mission in Uganda is doing everything to get them freed. Minister @GeoffreyOnyeamahas also been on the matter. @nidcom_gov is also in touch with their Lawyers.”

Igbere TV recalls that the trio of Stanley Didia, aka Omah Lay; Temilade Openyi, alias Ms Tems; and Muyiwa Awomiyi were arrested in Uganda.

Omah Lay was later remanded at the Kitalya prison and Ms Tems at Kigo prison - both in Uganda.

They were charged in a magistrate court in Makindye, Uganda, on Monday for “negligently doing acts likely to spread an infectious disease C/S 171 of the Penal Code Act.”

They were jointly charged with four other Ugandans and remanded till Wednesday.

The crew got arrested in Uganda by Katwe Police after performing at a concert in the country.

The concert is said to contravene President Museveni’s directives on social gatherings in a bid to curb the spread of COVID-19.

The president placed a ban on all music concerts, closed down bars, banned fans at all sporting events and reduced the number of people who could attend church services.

Leave the lawless idiots in Uganda and let them rot there.

Uganda is not Nigeria where lawlessness is part of life.
