The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has denied alleged plan to re-arrest ex-Minister, Femi Fani Kayode on November 10, 2016 when he is arraigned in court.
In a report by Premium Times, the anti-graft agency's spokesperson, Wilson Uwujaren discarded the tale saying it was a mere rumour.
Meanwhile
Fani-Kayode's spokesman, Jude Ndukwe has said he is aware of the plans
to re-arrest the ex-minister when he is arraigned for a charge of
collecting N26m from ex-NSA, Sambo Dasuki.
He
said: “Yes, we’ve been hearing that they have several matters lined up
for which they will use to continue to detain him indefinitely. It’s a
very dark moment for our country.”
Continuing, he said: “Don’t
forget that when he was re-arrested outside the court about two weeks
ago, the EFCC did so without a warrant of arrest or any detention order.
“Even
if he’s granted bail 100 times, the EFCC will rearrest him 100 times.
Please let me repeat, the EFCC is a lawless organisation,” Ndukwe said.
Fani-Kayode served as spokesman for the reelection campaign of former President Goodluck Jonathan.
