Speaking through his Communications Adviser, Phrank Shaibu, he confirmed the invitation, saying he would appear before the DSS on Monday.
He said, “Yes, I can confirm to you that he was officially invited and as a law-abiding citizen, he will honour the DSS invitation on Monday. The invitation, though ludicrous and an afterthought, is a welcome development.”
Reacting to the invitation, former Prelate of Methodist Church Nigeria, His Eminence Sunday Ola Makinde, told Punch that Nigeria should not be turned to a “police state.”
He said, “He should be law-abiding, let him go and face the DSS. Let us see if they will detain him and they will detain so many religious leaders in Abuja.
“Self-defence is permissible; they slapped our first cheek. They slapped the second cheek and we have no other cheek to turn for them. We may therefore resort to self-defence because this thing is becoming intolerable.”
