Oby Ezekwesili, a Former Minister of Education, has condemned the petition filed by the Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo, seeking the arrest of the Labour Party LP Presidential and Vice Presidential Candidates, Peter Obi and Datti Baba-Ahmed respectively, for comments he described as incendiary and capable of causing rebellion in the country.
Reacting to the petition on her Twitter handle, the former Minister asked if Festus “thinks Nigeria is a comedy.”

I saw a ludicrous piece of nonsense by a Minister in the @NigeriaGov of @NGRPresident @MBuhari , stoking the embers of destabilization of Nigeria by goading and inciting @OfficialDSSNG to arrest the @NgLabour Presidential Candidate and his VP.
Is Nigeria a Comedy to you folks?
