Former minister of aviation and spokesperson of the PDP presidential campaign organization at the 2015 election, Femi Fani-Kayode says the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) plans to re-arrest and detain him despite been granted bail by the Federal High Court in Lagos. Mr Fani-Kayode who is also known as FFK said the anti-corruption agency plan to detain him for as long as possible for politically-motivated charges which there is no truth in or substance to them whatsoever.” In a post on his Facebook page, FFK the EFCC filed fresh charges against him at the Federal High Court in Abuja on July 7 for allegedly receiving twenty six million naira from the NSA’s office in 2014. “The case has been assigned to a judge and the date for arraignment has been set for 10th November before Justice Tsoho of the Federal High Court in Abuja.

They have also written to the EFCC to that effect and our letter was acknowledged by them. “Because of that the matter is now seized of the court yet the EFCC are still planning to arrest me probably at the premises of the Federal High Court in Lagos after I appear there on friday 21st October to attend my trial on the trumped up and, again, politically-motivated charges concerning the presidential campaign funds,” he wrote. He said the EFCC is desperate to keep him out of circulation and off the streets and “I have been reliably informed that they were ordered to ensure that that is the case by the Presidency.” “They are also eager to arrest and detain my wife and my 8 month old son just to hurt and spite me even though they have done absolutely NOTHING wrong. “By the time I am in their custody they will start churning out all manner of garbage and lies to the media about me and my family and they will say all sorts of things about supposedly new matters which they have “just discovered” and “fresh allegations”. “They will even claim that I have admitted to certain crimes, that I have been badly implicated and that I in turn have implicated other people. Please do NOT believe a word of these dirty lies when they start flowing. It is called disinformation and the EFCC indulge in it all the time.

That is their style. They will say and do anything to demonise, humiliate, destroy, convict on the pages of newspapers and detain indefinately (with the aid of questionable detention orders from equally questionable magistrates and judges) those that they hate and all their perceived enemies. “Their plan is to attempt to justify keeping me off the streets for the next one month and even longer even though I am already out on court bail. The former presidential aide added that his only crime is that he has spoken the “bitter truth to power and I am very proud of that.” “I have known about this evil plan for over one month now and I am not deterred. I am not scared or intimidated and I urge them to do their worse and let God judge between us. The more evil they do to me, the more the coals of fire will pour on their heads. Also the more the President will continue to fail woefully and have all manner of strange and inexplicable problems.
