I'm Toyin Saraki's Private Investigator - Malaye by sanjex212: 9:10am On Aug 01, 2015 |
The Chairman, Senate Adhoc Committee on Media and
Publicity, Mr. Dino Melaye, has defended his open support
for Mrs. Toyin Saraki, wife of the Senate President, when
she honoured an invitation of the Economic and Financial
Crimes Commission.
The Senator, representing Kogi West in the National
Assembly, said he had no regrets joining Saraki at the EFCC
office.
Melaye said he went to the EFCC office “as a private
investigator and an anti-corruption crusader,” to find out the
extent of culpability of his “sister and friend” since she was
not told the content of the petition against her.
He said he was arrested 14 times in one year by the
administration of ex-President Goodluck Jonathan because
of his commitment to seeing a better Nigeria
He said, “The invitation of Mrs. Toyin Saraki by the EFCC,
however, is not a criminal indictment. I will not abandon my
friend because of (a) mere EFCC invitation.
“I also went there as a private investigator and an anti-
corruption crusader to find out the extent of culpability of
my sister and friend since she was not told the content of
the petition against her before her appearance before the
EFCC.”
Melaye, in a statement entitled, ‘Stand up for what you
believe in regardless of the popularity or acceptance of your
belief,’ which was obtained by Saturday PUNCH in Abuja,
challenged anyone to controvert his claim that he had never
taken any government contract, be it at the local, state or
federal level.
He said, “I chose to react to the attacks I have received
from my brothers, sisters and fellow citizens because I was
seen in the headquarters of EFCC with my sister, Mrs. Toyin
Saraki.
“I will start by saying that my struggle to fight corruption in
Nigeria was not an assignment or a paid job. It was borne
out of passion and desire to build a new Nigeria where
justice, equity and egalitarianism become a new order.
“I was arrested 14 times in one year by the administration
of ex-President Goodluck Jonathan because I desire a
country where my grandchildren (that I may never know)
will dwell in a nation where life is already structured for
them.
“I cannot throw away my sacrifice of being beaten and my
clothes torn on the floor of the House of Representatives
because of fighting against corruption. I have come too far
to compromise my stand on corruption and corrupt persons.
“I make bold here to challenge anybody who will controvert
the truth that I have never done any government contract,
either at the LG, state or federal levels. It is not criminal to
do so, but he who must come to equity must come with
clean hands.
“If my father is invited by the EFCC, I will go there; if a prima
facie case is established against him, I will shout for his
prosecution. So my great people, I have no regret following
my friend and sister to the EFCC. If you are my friend, you
are my friend.”r |
