Fayose to face sanctions over controversial Punch advertisement by placing death wish and making example with Late General Murtala Mohammed, General Sani Abacha and President Umaru Yar'adua. Ekiti state governor, Ayodele Fayose may be in trouble over the controversial advert he placed in major national newspapers regarding the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Muhammadu Buhari. On Wednesday, January 21, the National Human Rights Commission, said it had reviewed the advertorial, and it found that the material amounted to “hate speech.” The commission says it may not immediately arrest and prosecute Fayose because of the immunity he currently enjoys as a sitting governor, but added that Fayose would be recommend for appropriate sanctions after he leaves office. The intention to take action against the governor was communicated at a stakeholders’ roundtable organised by the NHRC for civil society groups, mainstream and social media partners in Abuja, on Wednesday, January 21. Chairman of the NHRC, Professor Chidi Odinkalu, while addressing journalists at the forum, condemned the death wish publication, saying it offended public decency and violated all known norms of decorum. Odinkalu said the governor should have exhibited caution and statesmanship in sending out the message, adding that he went too far in his message, without regard for the children of the former Northern leaders he showed to have died in office. Furthermore, he noted that the governor’s advert also violated Section 95 of the Electoral Act and should be made to pay for such open infraction. According to Section 95(1) and (2) of the Electoral Act: “A political campaign or slogan shall not be tainted with abusive language directly or indirectly likely to incite religious, ethnic, tribal or sectional feelings.” It also says: “Abusive, intemperate, slanderous or base language or insinuations or innuendos designed or likely to provoke violent reaction or emotions shall not be employed or used in political campaigns.
