Publisher of online news medium, Sahara Reporters, Omoyele Sowore has described controversial Nigerian senator's recently launched book; ''Antidote for Corruption'' as a ''cut and paste of newspaper article.''
Sowore made this remarks on Thursday at the launch of Sahara Reporters’ civic media lab in Lagos.
According to him, the launch of the media lab is unlike the red ribbon tape being paraded in Abuja. Sowore then took jibes at Senator Melaye, describing his book as ''cut and paste of newspaper article''
“What prof briefly mentioned about the launching in Abuja was the book launch of Dino Melaye, that has been very gut-wrenching for a lot of us,” Sowore said.
“We have been looking for that book in bookstores in Abuja, it has not been made available because we can’t afford it. It is N50,000 — just to buy cut and paste of newspaper articles.”
