#EndSARS: Lai Mohammed Tells UK Government not to Make Decisions Based On Fake News, Over Sanctions Plan

-
Lai Mohammed, Nigeria’s Minister of Information, has told United Kingdom lawmakers to desist from imposing sanctions on Nigerian Government officials, who violated rights of citizens during the peaceful #EndSARS protests.

Members of the UK Parliament had on Monday reached a unanimous decision to consider sanctions against Nigerian Government officials, who disrupted peaceful protests across the country as well as those involved in the attack and shooting of peaceful protesters at the Lekki Toll Gate, Lagos, on October 20.

Reacting to the decision, Mohammed in an NTA interview on Wednesday morning said, “We earlier stated that governments all over the world who have taken hasty decisions about Nigeria on this issue should please seek the truth.

“If the decision of any government all over the world is based on fake news, it is very risky. It brings me to the issue of the UK Parliament resolution. 

“We are not panicking at all as a government for two reasons – the resolution of the UK Parliament is not the decision of the country and no serious government will take a decision such as imposing sanctions based on fake news.

“This is why we are warning foreign countries to seek the truth and beware of fake news. The entire #EndSARS protest was fuelled by fake news.”

Manchester United were too strong for Chelsea at Stamford Bridge to beat Chelsea 2-0 courtesy of goals from Anthony Martial and Harry Maguire. It was also a game that saw Odion Ighalo make his debut.  One of the anticipated battles on the night was the midfield battle between Fred and N'golo Kante and both players did not disappoint fans though Kante was substituted early in the game because of injury.  Before he was taken off, he had a duel with Fred and the picture of that duel has got people talking. While he challenged Fred for the ball, Fred was smiling while Kante set his eyes on the ball.  Many fans have interpreted the picture the way they feel, while some even mocked Kante and others praised Fred for his doggedness.  Fred has been one of the Manchester United's best players under Solsksjaer while Kante has struggled with injury under Lampard
