Edwin Clark, a prominent South-South leader and former Federal Commissioner for Information, has formally petitioned Inspector General of Police (IGP) Kayode Egbetokun, demanding the immediate arrest and prosecution of Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory.

Clark’s call for action follows Wike’s recent incendiary comments threatening to ignite violence in states governed by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

In a statement released on Thursday, Clark expressed grave concerns over Wike’s statements, which he described as deeply troubling and potentially destabilizing.

According to Clark, Wike’s threats to “set fire” in PDP-controlled states constitute a serious breach of public peace and safety, warranting prompt intervention by law enforcement authorities.

Clark’s petition highlights the potential for such threats to incite unrest and violence, exacerbating tensions between political factions and undermining the stability of the regions involved.

He emphasized the urgency of the situation, urging IGP Egbetokun to take decisive action against Wike to prevent any escalation of the situation.

The former commissioner criticized Wike for making statements that he believed could lead to further political and social instability.

“The threats made by Minister Wike are not only irresponsible but dangerous,” Clark stated.

“Such rhetoric could provoke unnecessary violence and conflict, which is why law enforcement must take immediate and stringent measures.”

Clark’s petition comes at a time of heightened political tension in Nigeria, where disputes between political parties have frequently led to clashes and unrest.

By calling for Wike’s arrest, Clark is underscoring the need for accountability and the rule of law in maintaining public order.

The petition has drawn attention to the broader issue of political leaders using inflammatory language, which can escalate conflicts and undermine democratic processes.

Clark’s appeal to the IGP reflects a broader demand for responsible leadership and a commitment to peace and security in Nigeria’s political landscape.

As the situation develops, all eyes will be on the response from the police and the federal government.

Clark’s move emphasizes the critical role of law enforcement in addressing threats to public safety and maintaining stability in the face of political northern Elders Urge Tinubu to Reject Bandit Leader’s Reconciliation Bidrovocations.
