Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina has come out to say that there are millions of Nigerians who do not care about the re-arrest of Omoyele Sowore, the #RevolutionNow convener, by the Department of State Services (DSS).
He disclosed this during a Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily programme as a reaction to the violent re-arrest of the politician at a Federal High Court on Friday.
According to him, it is not true that several Nigerians are unhappy.
He added that a lot of Nigerians are focusing on more important issues.
His words, “I don’t particularly agree with you when you say a lot of Nigerians (are not happy), you know that all this noise has been coming from less than 100,000 Nigerians. And the noise will be so loud that you think it is the whole country.
“It is a country of 198 million people. When just 100,000 are making noise in the social and traditional media, you would think the whole country is in an uproar. There are millions and millions of people who are not bothered.
“There are millions of people who know what the issues are. So, you cannot just seek the opinion of a local minority and then conclude that the country is in an uproar.”
