The Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria (HURIWA) has faulted Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, for accusing Bishop Mathew Kukah of plotting President Muhammadu Buhari’s removal.
The minister had asked religious leaders to “refrain from stoking the embers of hatred and disunity”.
The Bishop of Sokoto Catholic Diocese in his Christmas message accused the President of nepotism. He said: “This government owes the nation an explanation as to where it is headed as we seem to journey into darkness. The spilling of this blood must be related to a more sinister plot that is beyond our comprehension.

Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria (HURIWA) has asked the Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, to keep quiet if he cannot read and understand the simple essay by the Catholic Bishop of Sokoto Diocese, Dr. Mathew Kukah.
In a statement yesterday by the National Coordinator, Emmanuel Onwubiko, and the National Media Affairs Director, Zainab Yusuf, HURIWA recalled Kukah’s 2020 Christmas Day essay, which lamented that nepotism characterised the present administration of President Muhammadu Buhari.
Describing Kukah as one of the lovers of constitutional democracy, the rights group said that the minister was, as usual, very economical with the truth and went on the voyage of discovery when he misinterpreted the essay written in simple English language by the highly cerebral and globally celebrated intellectual.
