The Information Minister, Lai Mohammed, has vented his anger against the British Government, for allegedly frustrating efforts towards closing down Radio Biafra, which is sited in the United Kingdom, UK.
Lai Mohammed said this during a News Conference, held at the Presidential Villa, in Abuja, on Wednesday.
Lai Mohammed however, decried that despite all the damage done by Radio Biafra, the British government was hiding under the right to freedom of expression.
“Who does not know that the IPOB internal radio is located in London? We know the diplomatic moves we have been taking and approaching the UK, all the damages it (Radio Biafra) has done, but they don’t see it that way; for them (the British government), it is about freedom of expression.
“If we have a person in Nigeria openly soliciting arms to come and fight the UK, what would you think of? Would you consider that freedom of expression? And this is a country that also has had a history, what did Iraq do to be labelled a terrorist organisation? They were planting bombs, they were fighting the British army.
“I don’t want any diplomatic row, we know for a fact where the funding is coming from, and we are going to stop them, but it is difficult to stop them, and we have been working on it and we will not stop,” he said.
