Osita Chidoka, a Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain, has accused the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission (EFCC) of frustrating Uyi Giwa-Osagie, a lawyer of Atiku Abubakar,
presidential candidate of the PDP in the 2019 elections.
EFCC arrested Giwa-Osagie on Thursday
when he honoured its invitation in Lagos.
The anti-graft agency filed
charges of money laundering to the tune of $2 million against Giwa-Osagie.
Commenting on the situation on
Facebook, Chidoka alleged that EFCC is deliberately keeping Giwa-Osagie in its
custody.
The federal government had
declared August 12 and August 13 as public holidays for the Eid-el-Kabir
celebration by Muslims.
Chidoka asked why the agency
invited Giwa-Osagie and asked him to wait till after the holidays.
“A Govt Agency arrests you for
laundering your money, grants bail, seizes your passport and ask you to report
regularly,” Chidoka wrote.
“Decides to charge you to court.
Invites you on a Friday, aware Mon & Tues are holidays, detains you to wait
for Wednesday.
“Why the wickedness? Why
dehumanize?”
