‘It Is Not Everything You Must Comment’ – Wike Knocks Falana

Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has berated human rights lawyer, Femi Falana (SAN), for always commenting on every issue.

Naija News recalls that Falana had faulted Wike for declaring a public holiday ahead of the just-concluded Area Council Polls and imposition of curfew in the nation’s capital city.

However, speaking with journalists on Sunday after meeting President Bola Tinubu at the presidential villa, Wike said Falana must not always give an opinion on every issue.

The former Governor of Rivers State urged Falana to verify his facts before commenting on any issue.

According to Wike, President Tinubu approved the movement restriction order regarding the FCT elections.

He said, “With all due respect, Femi Falana must not always comment just because he wants to comment.

“Comment on something you know about and have facts on. You can’t just wake up, and you hear somebody said this, and you can’t even verify before you make comments.

“It was Mr President’s approval that movements should be restricted because of a security report that people are trying to bring in hoodlums.

“It’s not everything you must comment. And if you must comment, go and find out and know what actually happened.”
