Please you kids should shut ya mouths up.

The crime is very likey a trumped up one. Moreover, even if it were correct why arrest him on the eve of an election. Will the case run away if you did the arrest next week.

What if he is innocent?

By arresting him, do you know you have practically removed him from his right to be voted for?
so because u are running for a political post that keeps u above the law,those people dey kill are not human abi..u are an idiot for ur comment, I wish na ur family dem kill fool

I know and I have said it that APC can never win a free and fair election without rough hand tactics. Tinubu is the worst political leader ever and that's why Lagos state indigenous are slaves in their own land. Tinubu is an economic vampire who has almost sucked Lagos to stupor. All the campaigns being mounted against SARAKI should have been directed at TINUBU for his oppressive and brazen stealing in Lagos.
How can any sensible government arrest a candidate on the eve of an election?
The arrest to say the least is an invitation to anarchy. No reasonable people will fold their hands in the face of tyranny. Unfortunately, we have a President whose government has been hijacked by desperadoes who are using state apparatus to oppress and silence the opposition. This oppression must end and I am sure it will end this weekend iJn

You read so many comments and the only thing is to laugh, I am from kwara state and live in kwara state, the convoy of APC senatorial candidate in kwara south was directly aimed at with guns from the house of the women leader of PDP in ojoku the home town of Rafiu Ibrahim where APC went for campaign, the woman was arrested and made confessions, the APC candidate for fear of rancor didn't go to ojoku before the postponement of the last week but after the postponement he decided to go but two of his boys were killed and you expect the police to leave him because it is the eve of the election

Lemme just kill you now... It is kuku election period
I shouldn't be prosecuted after all...
Ogaa think it well

You do not arrest an opposition politician or any politician for that matter on the eve of an election regardless of the alleged crime except the crime is an ongoing violent type. If it is murder, the Govt can prosecute him from next week. Nothing is running away.

The Govt should please behave

Rafiu Ibrahim ordered the attack on Lola Ashiru’s campaign at Ojoku. That attack led to the death of 2 APC supporters with so many others injured. He should be prosecuted for the murder of those two innocent guys.
Evidence to proof that he's the one behind the attack? We always believe that when a supporter is killed it is done by the other party,what about those in their party that might want to frustrate their campaigns cos of the beef they might have for each other maybe in the party primaries or long before now

But it is okay to disqualify contestants on the eve of elections?

The nass contestants disqualified in imo are not politicians abi? So the law can't wait to disqualify them after election since nothing is running away abi?

When it favours them, it is rule of law, otherwise, it is political witchunting. Which kind people be dis sef? huh

Many of you come to the media and speak gibberish.
Do you know how many people were killed in the incident that he was indicated?

If any opposition candidate decides to shoot you, aiming for your head but miraclously the bullet but hit your thigh instead, will you still insist the perpetrator should not be arrested until next week because he is an opposition candidate in the election?

The imo disqualification is an APC internal matter of a cheated APC member taking the party to court for illegality. So how does it relate here. Meanwhile,the arrested senator is based on hear say and APC script. But they will be shocked tomorrow.
Re: PDP Reacts To Arrest Of Senator Rafiu Ibrahim by oyatz(m): 3:07pm On Feb 22, 2019
Did you read the article well?
Tinubu is neither contesting nor in Kwara when the guys were killed, so what concern Tinubu in this murder case?

Shut up.

So a politician accused of murder should not be invited for investigation because he is in the opposition?

@POLITICSNGR

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP has reacted to the arrest of one of its Senators, Rafiu Ibrahim on allegations of murder. Below is a statement signed by the National Publicity Secretary of the party, Kola Ologbodiyan;

"The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) demands the immediate and unconditional release of our Kwara South Senatorial candidate, Senator Rufai Ibrahim and other members of the party framed-up, arrested and detained by the Police in Kwara state.

The PDP holds that the continued detention of Senator Ibrahim on the eve of a crucial election, in which he is a lead contender, is completely provocative.

The party also cautions the police to stop harassing, arresting and detaining its members on flimsy charges, as such will directly pitch security agents against the people in a manner that might spark off violent resistance with regrettable consequences.

This resort to police brutality by the APC is a script by a losing team which seeks to introduce violence and use the police to execute their rigging plots.

Nigerians will recall our vehement protest against the deployment of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu’s lackey, CP Kayode Egbetokun, as Kwara state Commissioner of Police, wherein we alerted of plots by the APC to use him to incite the people, cause pandemonium and pave the way for outright rigging in favour of President Buhari and all other candidates on the platform of APC.

However, PDP, in clear terms cautions the APC and their compromised security agents that nobody has the monopoly of show of strength. Our members in Kwara or any other state, for that matter, are law-abiding but will never allow themselves to be subjugated by anybody, particularly in this critical electoral process.

In this regard, our members should immediately activate their individual and collective defence mechanisms by using every legitimate means available, to resist the aggression of the APC and their compromised security agents as well as dismantle their rigging machineries.

We know that the plan of the APC is to stop our members from accessing their polling centres. Our members should deploy all legitimate means, including lawful self-preservation strategies and tactical manoeuvres to beat the aggressions, arrive at their respective polling centres and exercise their voting rights accordingly.

The PDP, therefore, calls on the Inspector General of Police to immediately call CP Kayode Egbetokun to order. We also call on lovers of democracy all over the world to rise in condemnation of this wicked harassment and arrest of our members ahead of a crucial election."

Sorry PDP, Lifeless FC is really desperate SMH. I even reported the arrest of your stalwarts in Kogi to INEC but they seem to have partisan people in INEC to report to SMH. To PDP, weeping might endure for a night, but joy (Monday) comes in the morning. I rest my case.

Bros did the crime wait after election?

In cases like this the question should be, What did he do? If there is an alleged crime there should be an arrest. Let us not politicise everything......what if the victims are your relatives, so you will agree with police that they are waiting after election before making arrest? Haba!!!!
