Tinubu’s aide, Sunday Dare, has cautioned activist Omoyele Sowore over his involvement in the #FreeNnamdiKanu protests in Abuja, warning that his actions could undermine the rule of law.
President Bola Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Media and Public Communication, Sunday Dare, has warned activist Omoyele Sowore over the ongoing #FreeNnamdiKanu protest in Abuja.
Dare said Sowore’s actions risk undermining the rule of law and interfering with judicial processes surrounding the trial of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
“Matters of justice are resolved in courts, not on the streets or through bravado and hysteria,” Dare said in a post on X. “The Sowore pastime of PR agitation and courting of public sympathy to interfere with judicial proceedings is outdated and counterproductive in a modern democracy.”
He noted that Kanu’s case predated Tinubu’s government and warned that “testing these limits will invite the full application of the laws.”
Earlier, police dispersed protesters near the Transcorp Hilton, causing traffic gridlock across parts of Abuja’s Central Business District.
