Nigerian singer,US-based Kelly Hansome earned the wrath of members of the All Progressive Congress (APC), America chapter, on Sunday,who kicked him out of their meeting for challenging the status quo.
The scene was captured in a video that surfaced on social media.
It showed how Kelly Handsome was escorted out of the building after airing his displeasure over events happening in their home State, Imo State.
Speaking about the incident via his Instagram, Handsome explained that some political heads in his state, including Senator Athan Achonuwere were trying to suppress freedom of speech,as his offence was that he was only trying to set records straight about the insecurity in Imo state, which he alleged was sponsored by the state government, led by Hope Uzodinma.
For saying that,he was asked to leave the meeting.
He further maintained that no one should collaborate with anyone to destroy his people, adding that it is not ok.
The video was shared with this message:“Trying to practice the suppression of the freedom of speech in a country where there is respect for human rights is a dumb move. They called the police to escort me out and I left, honorably. No disrespect intended, just the truth. Everybody knows the truth. #imostate
“You came to know our mind and we have told you our mind and you have asked us out and we’re out. That’s suspicious. Where’s the money? Nowhere. So, stop speaking English.”
In another post, he added, ”Senator Atan invited me to join the an Imo State forum apparently organized by APC to canvass for another 4 years of failure to do the needful. I’m trying to set the records straight about his statement on the insecurity issues in Imo State, he indirectly admitted that the government of IMO state was responsible for the insecurity in Imo State that took lives of our loved ones over there and has kept the whole state in fear and unrest.”
