The Media Office of the immediate past Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, has accused the EFCC of alleged Bias in the prosecution of the former Governor.
The Director of the Media team, Ohiare Michael, stated this Wednesday in Lokoja, Kogi State Capital.
“The EFCC’s operational and procedural blunders since the inception of the money laundering case against Bello reveal its true intentions.”
He cited some actions of the EFCC including the statement that “Yahaya Bello Must Have His Day in Court,” demonstrated a fixation on tarnishing Bello’s image for political reasons.
Micheal further the true intentions of the agency “If genuinely interested in prosecution, why not arraign Bello on the next adjourned date? Why embarrass the country to satisfy collaborators’ egos?”
“We urge Nigerians to ask: what does the EFCC truly want from Yahaya Bello? His Excellency will have his day in court, in line with the rule of law, not the EFCC’s prescription.”
Yahaya Bello reportedly submitted to the agency on September 18, but was not detained, but was followed by an overnight raid at the Kogi Government lodge.
