PFIPC scandal: ‘Abuse of power’ – Atiku condemns arrest of Adeyemi’s father
The presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, in the 2027 general elections, Atiku Abubakar, has condemned the arrest of Prince Adeniyi Adeyemi’s father.
In a post on X through his media aide, Paul Ibe, the former Vice president described the arrest as an abuse of power.
Human rights lawyer, Femi Falana, SAN, on Monday alleged that police operatives arrested the father of Adeyemi, the central figure in the ongoing forgery investigation linked to the purported council.
Reacting, Atiku said there is no provision in Nigerian laws for substituted arrest, querying the offense of Adeyemi’s father in the controversial allegation.
“It is an overreach, an abuse of power. Why did they allow Prince Adeyemi to sneak away and are now flexing their powers by arresting the father in his stead,” he asked.
He accused the president Bola Tinubu-led All Progressives Congress, APC, administration of always majoring in minors, demanding immediate release of the man.
