Fayose’s Bank Account: Don’t Return Nigeria Back To 1984/85 Era, Activist Tells Buhari

…..EFCC lacks power to freeze any Sitting Governor’s Bank Account

As reactions from well meaning Nigerians still trail the recent blocking of the personal account of Ekiti State governor, Mr. Peter Ayodele Fayose by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) , a renowned human rights activist and Executive Chairman, Centre for Human Rights and Social Justice (CHRSJ), Comrade Adeniyi, Alimi Sualiman has warned the President and Commander-In-Chief, General Muhammadu Buhari,rtd against returning the country back to the era of his despotic Military rule of 1984 to 1985 where the government was almighty.

Comrade Sulaiman who doubles as Chairman, Civil Societies Coalition for the Emancipation of Osun State (CSCEOS) also declared that the anti-graft agency, the Economic and Financial Crimes C omission(EFCC) lacked power and right to freeze any sitting Governor’s Bank Account, saying that Section 308 of the amended 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria has covered the sitting President/Vice-President and Governor/ Deputy- Governor from criminal offences, saying that the action of the anti-graft agency was political witch-hunt of opponent of President Buhari.

Reacting to the development in a statement issued by the CHRSJ’s Directorate of Media and Research, which was made available to newsmen on Tuesday, maintained that the Supreme Court of Nigeria has cleared air on the section 308 in the case of Gani Fawehinmi vs. IGP&Ors over Bola Ahmed Tinubu Chicagogate forgery saga in (2002) 7 NWLR (pt 767) pg 606 where it contended that the immunity did not cover any Executive President/ Vice-President and Executive Governor / Deputy-Governor from investigation but covering them from any prosecution, stressing that EFCC has gone beyond their boundary on this matter.

CHRSJ Chief who described the action of EFCC as illegal, anathema, abomination, unconstitutional, undemocractic, evil, ungodly, satanic and crime against God and humanity, requesting from the EFCC to tender unreserved public apology to Governor Ayodele Fayose over the trauma they(EFCC) made him to pass through in the last 48 hours.
