Tribalist! Even Dasuki is half Igbo and half Yoruba? Wetin concern Yoruba with criminal even if you are Yoruba. It is you folks that always defend criminals just because they are from your tribe, it doesn't matter to you if they have impoverished you through stealing, diversion and mismanagement of public funds while in office. Carry your tribalistic view away from here.

Has Dasuki the "alleged" record breaking thief been charged to court? He has! Did he ever appear ruffled and dehumanized by the security agents? No! There is no tribalism in the question that guy asked you brother. Let us be objective. A person is innocent until proven guilty and his fate can only be decided by the court of law. Unlawful detention and torture has no place in a democracy.

It looks to me like dis guy is pretending.when him nd his colleage's were being given dollars to rig elections it was all smiles then.

policemen will arrest someone father and claim they wont obey court order and nothing will happen.

Kai this man can act film

HomesOfLife:
Don't be decieved. The guy is hale and earthy. All those stunts ain't gon work... You do the crime, you face the time

so what is his crime Mr Attorney General in A Burukutu court

tobimillar:
I tire oo, can't he learn from big Bros Nnamdi Kanu... always smiling and looking strong

hush15:
We not expecting him to form excited had hearty, are we? It's the SSS.

DSS need to review their comment cos this guy ain't looking hale and hearty to me. He is just alive but not hale or hearty even if he dey pretend.

I read sometime back a judge granted bail as he is yet to be charged by the DSS for whatever crime for more than 3 months. Yet the DSS says they yet to get any order from the courts... If that's not impunity, I wonder what is!!!!

What is justice when it is only served to dead people...

Heard someone say "all is fair in war"! This is WAR against corruption! These same guys steal us blind, engineer a minority to run the majority of the legislators outta town and purport to impeach the Speaker, storm The High Court premises to assault a Judge whose record book was desecrated only to now turn around carrying placards and screaming blue-murder in front of Foreign Embassies claiming to be protecting democracy. The anticorruption agencies now know how those corrupt politicians use the court system and conscienceless lawyers and SANs to frustrate their prosecution in the hope a subsequent government will let them off the hook!

EastanPower:
What did this man do wrong?

Culpable in N4.7b fraud and electoral fraud

I thought Ekiti people have a reputation for being stubborn and tough. Ordinary detention and he is forming waist pain.

plaetton:
It's de ja vu all over again.

One step forward and two steps backwards.

Buhari is fast destroying our hard won democracy and Democratic values, just like he did way back in 1983.

I am shocked that the media, the human rights community and the NBA are do deafeningly quite.

Nigeria will never be the same again.

Because the media, human rights community and the NBA are sensible people and will not defend people involved in election rigging and monumental fraud

Boyewu:
Here is the offence
More facts have emerged on why some Ekiti State executive
council members and lawmakers were arrested by the
Department of State Services (DSS).
They are being investigated for various allegations, including
alleged murder, destruction of government property, tax
evasion, fraudulent procurement of judgment, attacks on
courts and judges, fraudulent diversion of reimbursement on
federal roads, subversion of electoral process, violence,
among others.
The suspects are Commissioner for Finance Toyin Ojo; former
Special Adviser on Revenue Matters Ropo Ogunjobi and four
lawmakers-Afolabi Akanni (Efon), Musa Arogundade (Ado 1),
Badejo Anifowose (Moba 2) and Sina Animasaun (Ekiti West
2).
The suspects and others yet to be arrested are also being
investigated for their roles as “strikers” during the June 21
2014 governorship election.
They are accused of carrying out attacks and pointing at
opposition figures who were arrested to pave way for rigging at
various units.
A source told our reporter on Tuesday that Ojo was being
questioned about the alleged receipt of N5.8 billion
reimbursement from the Federal Government on the
rehabilitation of federal roads, including the Ado-Ifaki Road.
The reimbursement on the project executed by the Kayode
Fayemi administration was paid to the Ayo Fayose
administration.
But it was not reflected in the 2015 budget speech presented
by Fayose to seven Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)
lawmakers of the Fourth Assembly.
Ojo is also being grilled on the N2.4 billion Ecological fund
received from the Federal Government but allegedly
mismanaged, with records tendered at DSS showing that only
N400 million was spent on ecological projects.
Our source also revealed that a lawmaker was being grilled for
alleged murder during a political crisis in his home town,
assault on Justice John Ademola Adeyeye, presentation of a
forged House of Representatives Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) primary election result for Ekiti North 2, which produced
Thaddeus Aina as the winner.
One of the aspirants, Cyril Fasuyi, presented evidence in court
that a forged result was presented when no election was held
with the lawmaker at the centre of the alleged fraud.
The lawmaker is also being investigated for blocking the
highway during the violence that trailed an attempt by the APC
lawmakers in the Fourth Assembly to impeach Fayose for
alleged gross misconduct.
He is also under investigation for alleged complicity in the
murder of Kareem Modupe (a.k.a. Eleyele) during a political
crisis in Efon last year.
Kareem’s body is still in the mortuary.
DSS is also investigating him over a petition that he did not
possess a valid senior school certificate, which is the
minimum requirement to contest for a House of Assembly
seat.
He was said to have stopped school in Form Three.
The source said: “When he was asked in DSS custody about
where he had his secondary education, he said he attended a
secondary school in Lagos but he cannot remember the date.
“The lawmaker is being questioned for assaulting Justice
Adeyeye alongside another aide of Fayose, who was rewarded
with the position of Special Assistant.
“The day of the incident coincided with the first day of sitting
of the Election Petition Tribunal when Fayose came to the
court with a large number of his supporters but he missed his
way and a case was being heard at Justice Adeyeye’s court.
“Adeyeye advised him (Fayose) to control his supporters but
they assaulted him (Adeyeye) in the presence of witnesses. All
these he will tell the DSS in the course of their investigation.”
The source also added that three lawyers in the Fayose
administration are being investigated for allegedly
masterminding an attack on Justice Isaac Olusegun Ogunyemi,
who was hearing a suit filed by a group.
“Ogunyemi was to deliver a ruling to stay action on Fayose’s
swearing-in but these lawyers masterminded the sacking of
the court by inviting hoodlums who carried out the attack. The
DSS is looking into these cases hitherto buried,” the source
said.
Another lawmaker is at the centre of a fraudulently procured
judgment from the Federal High Court, Abuja in which a
lawyer was hired for the candidate who won the Ado 1
primary, Odunayo Talabi (aka Arinka), without the latter’s
knowledge.
The lawmaker sued PDP, Independent National Electoral
Commission (INEC) and Talabi and secured an order to accept
his nomination and reject Talabi’s candidacy.
Talabi’s name had appeared on the INEC list of candidates
and he had been given nomination form by the electoral
agency.
Talabi petitioned INEC and other agencies, claiming he was
not put on notice and did not hire any lawyer to represent him.
A key Assembly man is also under investigation for allegedly
destroying seven ballot boxes during the House of Assembly
election in Moba 1 after the results on the field showed that
the Labour Party (LP) candidate, Babatunde Yinka, had won.
One of the officials is being grilled about N1.9 billion missing
within one year.
The source said: “Huge sums of money are transferred into
accounts he opened with two new generation banks in Ado-
Ekiti.
“He is building a petrol station and has built a mansion in his
hometown.
“He is expected to shed light on alleged fraudulent deals with
a vey senior government official and he has been
cooperating.”

Good. If it can be proved that the man has done all that, he should be charged to court without violating the law of the country. I am not supporting that he should go scot free, only that the rule of law must be obeyed before the 'oppression and suppression' is extended to you and i.

This is wrong in a Democratic setting. Are we now back to the military junta?
What is his offence?

Ugonnax:
This is what we have been telling yorubas...Buhari did this to Nnamdi Kanu, yoruba cheered it out of hate even when it's unconstitutional. Now Buhari is now passing the same unconstitutional treatment to yorubas....because you allowed it.

....and Buhari passed the same treatment to Dasuki........

Seriously, I don't understand this country anymore, fighting many battles at the same. If persecuting the opposition is what Buhari want to focus on, I bet it, he won't achieve anything throughout his 4yrs.

I am not against lawlessness but who are the saints in this country that does not have strategies for winning election. NIGERIA GOVERNMENT AND HYPROCRISY

It is well with Nigeria.

Na Budget dem dey battle with for the past 8months and yet no result, they should go and learn from UK.

maasoap:
Pls allow this commited administration to fight crime the way it can. After all, pdp was there for 16 years and instead, allowed corruption and indiscipline to flourish.

So in other word, we should do away with the laws of the land just to achieve our goals? Now, if all future administrations decides to be fighting corruption as they deem fit i.e, pdp, apc, apga etc; what kind of society are we going to have in say 30yrs? I believe if someone erred, he or she must be punished but if you feel the constitution should be send into the trashcan to achieve immediate results, then what is the meaning of JUSTICE? We can as well close down the legislative assemblies because it is a waste of time making laws for us and lawyers and judges can burn their cerficates because they are of no use to us as a nation. Mr. President is all-knowing & all-doing!

PRYCE:
You don't know his offence yet you are enjoying his incarceration! Well, it could be ur kin's turn tomorrow to be arrested without cause then you gon come in here to wail ur soul out!... SMH!

Am not enjoying anything, but am sure he's not picked up for nothing.
At this stage and point just like the US keeps suspected terrorists without any shred of evidence against them, am in support of DSS detaining a suspected looter/betrayer of public office trust because they have caused more damage than all the terrorist groups combined. So there, no apologies.

tbliss22:
Hey guys these set of lawmakers should be strong and face DSS officials head-on instead of this shivering jelly-fish attitude.

They should get a good lawyer and take the case to court if truly they have no skeleton in their cupboard.

This man is only a gladiator under his own roof I'm sure of it!!!

Don't mind the idiotic folks. They are so brain lazy, they choose not to dig into the records and see what these guys are arrested for. They will rather support thieves..........fools

all d pple happy about may dis also happen to ur parent

Lol..Ajebo lawmaker

D guy can't do without marijuna.. Give him soko, believe me strength will follow through his vein.

Sakara oloje

@Ugonnax, if not that massoap had said everything I wanted to say, I would have added that because you chose to be a low-life bigot that has no moral values to decipher between right or wrong, that will support thieves because he's your brother and do not care about the well being of others provided your tribe continues to benefit from what is obviously close to blood money..........oops!

We Yorubas graciously decline your offer to count us into evil. We don't support thieves just because he comes from our family in fact we are vociferous in making sure he atones for his sins

EazyMoh:
Lol! funny guy see how he is forming HIV patient to attract public sympathy. I don't know his offence, but he must have really pissed those guys off

the guy is truly a politrickcian. he has committed and he knows it so y trying to attract public sympathy which will never come. he should pay for his sins against the state.

When someone can be arrested and held without charge for God knows how long (I'm not saying he's innocent o!). Don't you just love how our so called "law enforcement agencies" are the worst law breakers? Nigeria lawless sha

If you and I don't walk in the corridors of corruption, talkless of being involved in corruption, how will "oppression and suppression" be extended to us?

It is needless crying they should be charged to court when thorough investigation is yet to be concluded. Do you want DSS to present a weak case in court and be thrown out so that these guys can go scot free?

9jabuzzdotcom:
Earlier today, it was reported by Ekiti state commissioner for information, youth, sports and culture that Hon Afolabi Akanni, a member of the Ekiti state House of Assembly had died in custody of the Department of State Services due to neglect.

The security agency were compelled to parade him on Thursday afternoon to prove that he was still alive and well.

He was seen wearing a rubber bathroom slippers as the DSS paraded him to some journalists at the agency’s headquarters, among which included The Punch newspaper.

A whole lawmaker. Nawab in bathroom slippers. Lol. DSS don disgrace this guy o

Stop over running your mouth..he's Innocent until d court said otherwise .stop celebrating tyranny n autocracy in democracy

I thought this man was declared dead by Fayose and his theatre house government?

Only in Nigeria... Why hasn't he been charged yet?

Too many block heads on nairaland,how can someone say "he's pretending as if he has HIV"don't u know that anywhere apart from home is not home?,another one saying "ekiti people ehn",what has ekiti people got to do with the unlawful detention of a lawmaker,abi e get who e no fit happen to? U guys should at least always apply some sensibility to ur comments,not just spitting rubbish for talking sake!

southniyikaye:
oga carry your wisdomless quotes away from here.was ibori not tried in one of these courts? The same court that will tell a looter who stole billions to pay thousand for bail! Have you forgotten when an accused will take drum and everything to court because he knows he will be bailed? Nigerian politiefcians needs iron hand and that's what they are getting.

What you are saying in essence is that the courts orders should be set aside and the judiciary is be erased?

Even Kabiru Sokoto the notorious terrorist was not paraded in bathroom slippers. It is dehumanizing to parade someone in such casual state when he is not a convicted criminal.

solara:


Op what is wrong in wearing bathroom slippers
