The spokesperson of the Nigeria Police Force (NPF), Olumuyiwa Adejobi on Tuesday charged Nigerians with evidence to file a case of an attack against Chairman of the Lagos State Parks and Garages Association, Musiliu Akinsaya, popularly known as Mc Oluomo.
Adejobi stated this while reacting to a post from a Twitter User, @AjammaS.
AjammaS in a post on the microblogging platform had claimed that Adejobi and the police failed to protect voters during the election after he asked people to take MC Oluomo’s remark about Igbo in a viral video as a joke.
AjammaS wrote, “Sir, you are also guilty, if I may say. This is what you said in the TV interview, and I quote. ‘MC Oluomo’s threat is a joke, let’s take it as a joke until he perfected [sic] the threat. I urge everyone to go out and cast their votes.
“Now Nigerians heed your calls and went out to cast their votes and unfortunately you failed to protect them as you promised. They were attacked by MC Oluomo and his boys, some were murdered, brutalised, blinded, and some are currently receiving treatment in different hospitals.”
Adejobi, in his response, asked the Twitter user to file an attack case against Oluomo if he had evidence of attacks against him, adding that Oluomo lacks immunity.
He said, “You can take the case of attack up with MC if you have a case or evidence of attacks against him. Many people and lawyers, even the deputy gov of Lagos, have said it severally. He has no immunity, so if you have a case of an attack against him, take it up.
“There is no need to pass judgement or do trial on Twitter. Very simple. Many of you just follow others to raise this issue on Twitter.”
