"FG, silencing opposition, not fighting corruption :Fani-Kayode"

The federal government has been criticised for holding on
to former minister and spokesman President Goodluck
Jonathan presidential Election Committee, Chief Femi Fani-
Kayode despite meeting his bail conditions.


In a release, yesterday, by Jude Ndukwe, SA Media to the
former spokesman said," The continued holding of Chief
Femi Fani-Kayode in EFCC custody for this long despite
meeting his bail conditions goes a long way to show that
this fight is not about corruption after all but all about
silencing the opposition."
According to him," This tactic of keeping key and vocal
members of the opposition out of circulation without due
regard to our laws and or harass them with charges that
cannot stand the test of judicial requirements has got to
stop. The sweet smelling savour of democracy will be
polluted when the opposition is stifled."
Ndukwe denounced the alleged acts of intimidation and
harassment by the EFCC and requested that Chief Fani-
Jayode should be freed.
His words: " We condemn in very strong terms these acts
of intimidation and harassment and request that he be
released forthwith even as we call on all well-meaning
Nigerians to know who to hold responsible should anything
untoward happen to Chief Femi Fani-Kayode
"This act of executive rascality, at a time when Nigerians
are groaning more than ever before over the economic
hardship inflicted on them by this administration, is
needless. It will achieve nothing but will only lead to a
puerile end."
