Lawmaker, Afolabi Akanni, Dies In DSS Custody - Lanre Ogunsuyi For Ekiti Govt by Oloniyan(m): 2:12pm On Mar 17, 2016

BEING THE FULL TEXT OF EMERGENCY PRESS CONFERENCE ADDRESSED BY THE EKITI STATE GOVERNMENT ON THURSDAY, MARCH 17, 2016

Gentlemen of the Press,

Information reaching us indicates that one of the abducted members of the Ekiti State House of Assembly, Hon. Afolabi Akanni has died in the custody of the Department of State Services (DSS).

It will be recalled that the honourable member has been unlawfully incarcerated in DSS custody since March 4, 2016. A court order directing his release since March 11, 2016 was ignored by the DSS.

Significantly, since his illegal detention, he has been held incommunicado without access to his family members, doctors and lawyers.

We call on the DSS to immediately clarify the situation as to the status (dead or alive) of Hon Afolabi Akanni, representing Efon Constituency by producing him physically for all Nigerians, particularly his immediate family to see.

While we are waiting for the DSS, we urge every resident of Ekiti State, particularly the people of his immediate Constituency in Efon to remain calm.

Thank you.
Hon. Lanre Ogunsuyi,
Commissioner for Information, Youths
and Sports Development.

Buhari Jr. You get mind yo utter this?

In a 21st century, where rights and freedom is a hallmark, court orders are thrown into dustbin yet you expect the common man to obey traffic rules in Lagos?

Leadership is by example.

And you Zombies continue with your atrocities and impunity till 2019 grin

I am not moved by your tantrum since PMB himself could say this>>>
ON PRESIDENTIAL MEDIA CHAT
QUESTION : (by Mr Ibanga of Premium
Times):MR president, the DSS under your watch has consistently disobeyed court orders. Dansuki has had 3 court orders asking for his release. And Nnamdi Kanu. And many other cases. Court orders which your DSS has not obeyed
ANSWER : (by Buhari on national TV) :How can they be released? Do you know that Kanu has passports of 2 different countries? Do you know the billions that Dansuki stole? And you are talking of court order for release. I hope the judges are watching this!

The Buhari led federal government has buried the rule of law since last year, and has since been pounding the judiciary in the morter of APC politics.
God will judge.

Taking a microscopic look at the situation according to the letter, how were they sure about his death before releasing such a claim and still ask the family members to remain calm until its verified?! Jeez!

This government has changed everything. Everyone must give an account of his stewardship. Prison is not only made for common people alone, corrupt persons must have their share of this galore. If he dies then let's bury him. This is the day of reckoning.

Rule of Law: According to United nation.....refers to a principle of governance in which all persons, institutions and entities, public and private, including the State itself, are accountable to laws that are publicly promulgated, equally enforced and independently adjudicated, and which are consistent with international human rights norms and standards. That is all i have to say
