Lai Mohammed
The Nigerian federal government has accused some clergymen of tactically encouraging the ouster of President Muhammadu Buhari.
In a press release issued on Saturday, Information Minister Lai Mohammed urged religious leaders not to stir the embers of hate.
Mohammed warned that the use of scorched earth rhetoric might lead to unforeseen consequences, EKO HOT BLOG gathered.

“Although religious leaders have a responsibility to tell the truth to power, such truth should not be shrouded in anger. Hatred, disunity and religious disharmony”, he noted.
The minister emphasized that it is ungrateful and unholy for a religious leader to use the Christmas period to preach sectarian strife and national disunity.
He said at that time that certain religious leaders may not be able to mask their national leadership preference, “they should refrain from stigmatizing the leader they have never supported anyway, using well-worn and disproved allegations of nepotism or whatever”.
