Former Nigerian Minister of Education, Oby Ezekwesili, has threatened to file a lawsuit against the Federal Government for allegedly building a barricade around the Unity Fountain in Abuja.

In a video shared by Mrs Oby on her official Twitter page on Saturday, some people were seeing at the fountain with barricade almost around it.

Before the Federal Government allegedly barricaded it, the Unity Fountain until now was an open space where anyone can walk in to relax or organize a protest.

According to the former minister in her tweet, whose hitherto uses the same fountain for the convergence of the Bring Back Our Girls campaigners, “this move by the Federal government will end in tears”.

“Kole werk” Oby added as she threatened to file lawsuit against the Federal government if the barricade is not pulled down.

“See what the repressive but weak administration of ⁦President Buhari⁩ is doing to the Unity Fountain — the Public Space that has become a Symbol of Citizens’ Freedom to Assemble.

“Trust me, kole werk. Mba.

“Mr Buhari, your government gave a contract to Julius Berger to barricade the Unity Fountain?

“What an assault on our Democracy!

“You actually think that by walling up the Unity Fountain, your Nigeria Government will control Citizens’ Right to Assemble? Naaa.

“Let me offer free counsel to our ⁦President⁩ ⁦Buhari⁩. Ask your contractors to pull down the fence and roll back their construction equipment of Unity Fountain now.

“This act of stifling Citizens’ Voice will end in tears. But it won’t be Citizens crying, Sir!

“This will not happen. +

“As ⁦Kabrik⁩ so profoundly said in this clip, ⁦Buhari⁩ CANNOT build a Fence against the Voice of the Citizens of this country. Never.

“If within the next few days the ⁦Nigeria Government ⁩ does not take down those wires, ⁦we file a suit.”

She further stated; “Should Nigeria Government back up and now say that this wiring is to commence renovation of the Unity Fountain, our ⁦Bring Back Our Girls movement, all other citizens that use the venue and the Public should have been DULY NOTIFIED.”

“We are a DEMOCRACY,” she exclaimed.

Federal government want to turn the fountain to a revenue generation sight..... Any way na way for Nigerian Government.

Well seems madam Oby loves this koker's chune "Kolwerk " Where Mr Koker dey seff?

As far as am concern Mr President has never done any bad to the citizinry, rather the citizen has never be in support of his fight against corruption. What an average Nigerian know about Government is the spirit which past looters (PDP) inject in them "chop i chop" which our able Presido is against.........

I like Buhari, his partern of leadership, his I don't care behaviour etc . Bubu till 2090.. Oby should fry bitter kola

Nigerians are used to looting government treasury and sharing it. Buhari has said no more looting. That's Buhari's sin against IPOB, PDP, Ohanaeze, MASSOB, Afenifere and other association of miscreants.

Too must protest have taken place there, thus the barricading

Okay

Who does that?

This world is a very funny place

Karma no longer take long time as usual.

I still remember the role this woman and uncle Sowore played in supporting the disastrous Mohammadu Buhari and his government in 2015

This regime no Freedom of speech till 2023

Just barking aimlessly. Seems this ugly woman is suffering from depression. Is the Unity Fountain her property or Government's own?

Losers everywhere....smh

Just looking for cheap publicity. This is someone that couldn't muster up to 500 people throughout her campaigns disturbing our BABA with over 15 million votes. Dundee United

Hmmmmmm this is so true.
TRUTH IS BITTER tho....

If it was barricaded, how did they get inside?...I don't know why we like cheap propaganda like this. The barricade was put there to prevent crossing the road anywhere as we can all see cars moving at higher speed. That's beside transacorp hilton and opposite it is millennium park

There goes the difference between a democratic government and dictatorship government.

You said Jonathan was the worst, now you see what is worse than worst. Issa change inna next level.

Madam keep stop all these. 2023 is not that far. Buhari is a tyrant we know. So lets ignore

Buhari is a fool because this only makes for better visuals for protests.

Hmmm

Hmmm
