Edwin Clark wants Lai Mohammed prosecuted for fake news

The elder statesman said in a statement on Monday that the minister has led the arm of the present administration, which rather than unite the country “as his job implies,” make declarations that can cause disaffections.

He also lamented that Mohammed has behaved in manners that are less noble for the office he occupies, citing his alleged use of the Nigerian Broadcasting Commission (NBC), an agent of his ministry, as “constant weapon of intimidation and harassment of the press.”
