Governor Fayose of Ekiti State has challenged President Buhari to direct the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC to charge the National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party, Chief Olisa Metuh, to court if they have any evidence against him. According to Fayose who says he supports the fight against corruption says, the agency are not doing their job the right way.

Fayose accused EFCC of arresting PDP chieftains, before looking for evidence against them. He also challenged the president to prosecute APC chieftains whom people have written petitions against but the EFCC are yet to look into such books.

Fayose while speaking through his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka in a statement said;

"In saner climes, you don't arrest people for alleged fraud and start to look for evidence to prosecute them. Rather, before you arrest anyone for fraud, anti-corruption agencies must have established a prima facie case and arresting the suspect will only be for his or her arraignment in court. Continue…

"However, what we are witnessing in Nigeria today is a situation whereby the EFCC will arrest PDP leaders, humiliate them by subjecting them to media trial, detain them for weeks in the process of trying to force them to make statements during which the commission will be looking for evidence.

"For instance, in the case of Metuh, we are told that the EFCC is insisting that he must write statements and one begins to wonder if it has now become mandatory for an accused to write statements in law enforcement agent's custody. Shouldn't the EFCC have simply charged Metuh to court based on its own evidence? Or is Metuh's statement the evidence the EFCC requires to prosecute him?

"The international community, especially the United Nations, African Union, European Union, and others are put on notice on this condemnable act of arresting and detaining opposition leaders by agents of the Buhari-led government before fishing for evidence."

While challenging the President to extend his anti-corruption crusade to those who sponsored his election, Fayose added that "any anti-corruption effort that targets only members of the opposition and those with axe to grind with the government of the day can never succeed.


"If President Buhari does not wait for any petition to move against PDP chieftains, asking people to come forward with allegations of corruption against APC chieftains, especially those who sponsored President Buhari's election is clearly hypocritical."

KEEP SCROLLING TO THE END ...WE STILL GOT LOTS MORE .......

Revenge is a Poison meant for others, which we end up swallowing ourselves. Vengence is a Dark Light that blinds all who seek it. Don’t argue with Idiots.. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
