The Minister of State for Defence, Dr. Bello Muhammed Matawalle, has condemned recent statements made by Rotimi Amaechi, accusing him of inciting violence and unrest among the Nigerian populace.
Recall Amaechi recently said Nigerians should be protesting against the hardship in the country.
However, Matawalle in a statement released by the Director of Information in the Ministry of Defence, Henshaw Ogubike, which was obtained by newsmen on Saturday, issued a stern warning to the former Minister of Transport, urging him to desist from making inflammatory remarks that threaten the peace and stability of the nation.
Matawalle expressed deep concern over the dangers posed by such rhetoric.
“It is both reckless and irresponsible for a former public servant of Amaechi’s standing to incite Nigerians against their own government,” he said.
