The twitter , Jackson Ude has started talking tough after he tweeted regarding the immediate past Minister of Works and Housing Babatunde Fashola in regard to nefarious moves to induced Judges in about to be delivered Presidential judgement involving the President Bola Tinubu of the APC, Atiku Abubakar of the PDP and Labour Party, Peter Obi.
The development incurred the wrath of the former Governor of Lagos State Babatunde Fashola taking a legal action against the twitter and a petition already with DSS.
All this didn’t make Jackson Ude sneeze but fire on the salvo. He said , “I have seen some documents online purportedly authored by some faceless lawyers on behalf of Babatunde Fashola, a former Lagos State Governor, a former Minister in which they are petitioning the Nigerian Communications Commission, NCC, the Inspector General of Police, IGP, and the Department of State Security, DSS, to investigate my tweets alleging that the former Lagos State Governor, a lackey of Bola Tinubu, is conniving with the Judges handling the Presidential Elections Petition Tribunal, PEPT, to write a favorable judgement for Tinubu”.
He dismissed the former Minister litigation option and said he is unperturbed about it.
“While I am not in any way moved by any petition, Fashola as a good Muslim that he claims to be, should swear by the Holy Quran that he has not had any meeting, any phone conversations or any form of discussions with any member of the PEPT, any Judge, any Lawyer, or anyone at all, in which he solicited Legal or the Judiciary support for Bola Tinubu”.
“A man who belongs to the same system that rigged the 2023 Presidential elections is using the same agencies of the rogue government to intimidate me. Fashola is known within the political and Judicial circle as a dealer who does deals with corrupt judges”.
“I cannot be intimidated with or by any element in the roguish government currently occupying the Nigeria leadership space. That tweet or post remains what it is and I will be vindicated” Jackson fumed.
“If Fashola, as a senior lawyer does not see anything wrong that the man he is serving, doctored his academic records, committed drug crimes in the U.S, forfeited $460k for committing drug crimes, and has no family records, no primary and secondary schools record, and yet he continues to help him commit electoral fraud to lead Nigeria, then he is not worth my respect and does not have any iota of credibility. A friend of a rogue is a rogue!”
“They can use the instrumentality of the Nigerian state to do whatever they like. I would not stop using what I have to expose the criminality in Government. I won’t stop”. Adamant Jackson continued.
“It would have made more sense if Fashola had asked an independent organization or the FBI, the Interpol, the CIA to investigate him over my allegation or even go to any of the neighboring countries such as Ghana, Togo or Cameroon and request any of their security agencies to investigate me. But going to the agencies he petitioned to, makes the whole thing look like a joke”, he opined
If Nigerians at home have been cowed and beating to become deaf, dumb and blind to the illegality and unending corruption, those of us in the diaspora who are still passionate about Nigeria would not keep quiet. I will continue to expose and let the petitions continue to flow!!
The Minister’s lawyers has approached the court in what he terms “Fake news” to bring Jackson Ude to book but the position of Jackson Ude asking the President’s ally to swear by Quaran has no place in law. How he comes with proofs is awakening the consciousness of Nigerians or be regarded as fake news as the petitioner has implied.
