PDP Asks DSS To Explain Reason For Abaribe’s Arrest. by Mhiztamurtala(op): 6:46pm On Jun 22, 2018
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has asked the Department of Security Services (DSS) to immediately disclose the whereabouts of the Senator representing Abia South in the Senate, Enyinnaya Abaribe, who was arrested earlier today by the agency.
The party also asked the DSS to disclose the reason for the arrest, adding that the agency had failed to allow the senator access to his lawyers and associates.

“The PDP charges the DSS to immediately declare Senator Abaribe’s whereabouts, as well as the charge against him. Moreover, the laws of our nation are clear on the process of arrest and prosecution of any citizen and not recourse to clampdown and intimidation”.

This was made known in a statement signed by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, on Friday.

The party also lamented that the “Gestapo-style arrest of Abaribe has further confirmed the earlier alarm that the APC-led Federal Government has commenced a total clampdown on the opposition and perceived opponents of President Muhammadu Buhari’s 2019 re-election bid”.

Furthermore, the PDP said the clampdown on Senator Abaribe is feared to be in “furtherance of the moves to intimidate and emasculate members of the National Assembly who are known for their outspokenness against the constitutional violations and misrule of the APC administration”.

It also stated that Nigeria is “fast descending into a fascist state where constitutionally guaranteed freedom of speech no longer obtains and citizens are marked, arrested and detained on the whims and caprices of those in power”.

The PDP, therefore, asked for the senator’s immediate release.

By now he should have been allowed his lawyers ,he has the right to.
Abaribe is an opposition leader who enjoys the overwhelming support of the people there is need to avoid unnecessary tensions.

Buhari's bunch of bastards are starting a war they can't win. He wouldn't be in the saddle forever. If they think they can misuse power anyhow they like because they're currently in the saddle, then they don't know anything.

Tomorrow shall come, and tomorrow's people would be more vengeful and more unforgiving than this animal called Buhari thinks he is today.

Buhari would likely be dead with his old, frail, senile, useless self by then, but his jobless son Yusuf, his close family members and associates, and every power drunk idiot currently serving under this government would be hounded, emasculated, and annihilated. That's a promise.

In a month, a year, or when he man dies in detention?

Democracy is not arresting every annoying opposition member, but managing to tolerate them within the law.

So once you are in opposition you have immunity from arrest or prosecution?

Long overdue, he was busy forming guarantor for a criminal and fugitive. This man would be behind bars in a saner clime.

He needs to provide the enemy of state who is now on the run.

Tolerate a man who stands as a replacement for a criminal?

Why is it unconstitutional?

Or should the DSS announce their arrest before doing so?

Yes-that is the standard in making legal arrest globally. DSS is bound by the Nigerian laws/constitution in the administration of justice.

The FG should be very careful and thread carefully on Abaribe. He's one person His people respect a lot.

They must avoid creating another avoidable tension at this time around.

Buhari must know Igbos view him with a lot of suspicion.

grin Abaribe will be treated as an enemy of this nation for helping a Terrorist (Nnamdi Kanu) escape.

I urge IGP and his Boys to show him no mercy.
