Eminent lawyer has condemned the drama staged by a former Minister of Niger Delta, Godsday Orubebe at the collation centre of the presidential election in Abuja to disrupt the proceeding.
Reacting to this ugly action, Lagos based lawyer, Festus Keyamo condemned the show of shame saying Orubebe’s action is capable of plunging Nigeria into a civil war if not checked.
"Orubebe’s action is very disgraceful. Secondly, it threatens the unity of this country. It was this same attitude that led to the civil war in Cote di’voire when Gbagbo’s agent entered the collation centre and tore the results that were to be announced."
Keyamo who likened Orubebe's action to what happened in Cote d’ivoire when agents of a former president Laurent Gbagbo tore the election result, said he deserved to the disciplined.
“That was what led Cote divoire to civil war that killed more than 30,000 people in that country. Orubebe should understand that his action is capable of threatening the unity and peace of this country. It is an action that we totally condemn,” Keyamo added.
