Still on the matter of unnecessary police harassment, let me quickly push my sister Azuka Ogujiuba’s matter to the forefront.
For those of you who don’t know, Azuka is a powerful media personality, a veteran columnist and very influential personality. Let me even say it here, that it is Azuka who gave me my break as a columnist. She is the one that took me to THISDAY and told Shaka Momodu, the then Editor of Saturday THISDAY – Shaka this boy fit write.
So, it is now this Azuka that is being thrown in and out of police cells for doing her job. According to her, she published a press release on a matter that was released on the back of a court order – Edgar, no be only me report am o but na me dem invite, carry police surround house wey I stay for Abuja, come carry me like terrorist.”
It is fitting that an international press organisation has released a strongly worded statement on the matter and this is me also adding my own voice. You guys can carry all the journalists in this Nigeria, me I don’t care o but don’t touch my Azuka o. That is when you people will see my red eye ooo. Don’t touch my Azuka o, aghhhhhhhhh, I will fight o and you people don’t want to see my red eye ooo.
I will just tear my shirt, tie a red bandanna and remove my clothes and stand stark naked in front of your headquarters and you know the implication of that on police women in this country.
This is the last warning that I am sending out o. If you don’t release Azuka immediately ehnnnn (kai, Editor just mentioned that she has been released) God save una I swear, otherwise…
But seriously, can’t we just even follow due process on a matter like this? Kai, Nigeria.
