The Nigerian human rights lawyer, Femi Aborisade said that what happened to the Former Deputy Senate President, Professor Ike Ekweremadu by IPOB members on August 17, 2019 in Nuremberg, Germany should serve as a lesson to all current Nigerian public office holders because they will stand to answer for a crime committed against humanity.
He added, after watching the video, he noticed that these people where asking him questions. Obviously, masses have right to ask their leader questions either former or current. Therefore, "there's no offense to that".
“My perception of the video that I watched showed that they were asking him questions, and Nigerians, anywhere they are, have the right to ask questions from their leaders either former or current. The reason was to get clarification on issues and for them to justify their actions. There is no offense in that.
“They were only asking that he should justify his statement, position, and attitude towards supporting the proscription of the IPOB. There is no attack. It is an issue of asking questions.
“It is a lesson to all current public office holders because one time or the other, all those that are depriving us democratic rights today will answer for a crime against humanity.”
