The lawmaker said that he does recognise anyone among those who called themselves organizers of the nationwide protest, which has entered its eighth day.
A former Governor of Edo State, Senator Adams Oshiomhole has slammed one of the organizers of the EndBadGovernance protest, Omoyele Sowore.
According to Oshiomhole, Sowore is a defeated politician.
Oshiomhole, who appeared on Arise TV on Wednesday morning, said there was no need for the protest, adding President Bola Tinubu was doing everything within his power to solve the economic challenges facing Nigeria.
The lawmaker said that he does recognise anyone among those who called themselves organizers of the nationwide protest, which has entered its eighth day.
“I listen to all those names you mentioned and the others, I don’t know them. Which Nigerian does not know Wole Soyinka? Who didn’t know Gani Fawehinmi of blessed memory? Who doesn’t know Femi Falana?” He said.
“I know Sowore as a defeated presidential candidate. And when you’re defeated in an election, you wait for the man who won the election.
“Give him time. Sowore cannot be seen as speaking for the people because he is still nursing the pain of his defeat.
“So, that’s not the guy to speak for people in Kano, for those people who throw bombs in Maiduguri or those people who hijack cars in.”
