I’m prepared to die! – Sowore vows as he hits back at Dino Melaye, shares e-mail from London school


London school: The publisher of Sahara Reporters, said he would die to ensure that those he described as ‘drug dealers, certificate forgers, money launderers, political manipulators, and assassins’ are named and shamed. has reacted to the jail comment made by the embattled Senator, Senator Dino Melaye. The outspoken Senator representing Kogi West Senatorial District, Dino Melaye who on Saturday, posted his official petition against Sahara Reporters publisher, Omoyele Sowore to the Inspector General of Police (IGP) on social media and promised that he will send him to jail, has received a response from the investigative journalist.

Sowore, has sworn to see to the very end the case against Dino Melaye, saying he was ready put his life on the line to ensure that Nigeria is rid of manipulative leaders.

He said he would rather go meet his ancestors in his quest, than see Melaye walk free, adding that he has sworn to name and shame politicians who have, for too long, been deceiving the Nigerian people.

Read Sowore’s Facebook Statement below:

Folks: It was brought to my attention earlier that Nigerian Senator Dino Melaye promised to ‘send me to jail’ over the recent unraveling of his questionable educational background.

While some are worried, appalled, alarmed and concerned and even scared about this declaration, it had me thinking differently.

I am a Nigerian citizen who had been through torture, humiliations, and incarceration by dictators in uniform between 1992-1999 before I eventually left Nigeria. I have never doubted the power of justice over legalities.

That a Nigerian Senator in a democratic era could make this proclamation is indeed a sign that our democratic transition was a farce, particular when you’ve now noticed that Mr. Melaye was sitting at the feet of one of Nigeria’s worst military dictators, Ibrahim Babangida just a week ago.

One of Babangida’s worst crimes against humanity was the assassination of notable investigative journalists of our time, Dele Giwa, by way of a parcel bomb.

Another thing Melaye shares in common with Babangida and his killer squad was using libel lawsuits to silence inquisitions In the 80’s Gani Fawehimi was found liable of libeling the killers of Dele Giwa and asked to pay damages to Halilu Akilu.

Here is how I am different and also not different, I am not going to run away from criminals running the Nigerian political space until they are defeated, and their ideologies of greed, bloodiness, and avarice are entirely abandoned and discredited forever (Apology to Bob Marley).

If it takes my life, so be it. If it means another unjust ruling asking for damages for thieves. So be it. We must take our space back from the 10 percenters, drug dealers, certificate forgers, money launderers, political manipulators, and assassins.

Thanks you.
