Earlier on NDLEA operatives stormed Prince Buruji Kashamu home in Lekki and now they are saying they will wait till Monday, to know whether they could arrest him.
During an interview with SaharaTV, Austin Oyinokor explained that Mr. Kashamu said he wanted to kill himself only to prevent getting arrested. That the suicide threats were:
“just to show that he is a law-abiding citizen, a responsible man who knows that he has a lot of followers and a lot of people that depended on him. I know that he will not take such an action. He just said it probably to show that he was ready to give anything to ward off any form of illegality.”
, “we hope that all Nigerians and even the international community will prevail these people to...the part of illegality, the part of the rule of law, follow due process. This man is not running to anywhere, he has said it time and again; he is not in hiding; if he was running, they won’t meet him at home. Yesterday he was at work, and he went home like any other person.
Our question is why would the NDLEA come for him [Kashamu] with hooded men and without a warrant of arrest, we felt that there must be a political undertone, we felt that maybe the disagreement we had in the PDP before the last general elections may have necessitated this kind of extrajudicial action because there isn’t any court order and there isn’t a warrant of arrest.”
“He actually said that I should invite the press, the whole world to come and know what is happening here, that they have come to illegally abduct him; we actually called them [Press], and that they should come report this illegality to the whole world.
He is in high spirit; all he is asking for is for the due process of the law to be followed; he is not entertaining any fear at all.”
