It was a mild drama at Muritala Mohammed International
Airport today around 2:30pm Nigeria time when DSS and
EFCC officers arrested former president Olusegun Obasanjo
on his way out of the country.
The former president who was said to be wearing a white
Agbada with a black shoe was arrested by DSS with Hand cuff
in his hand the moment he arrived at the airport this
afternoon. As at time we are filing this report, former
Governor of Lagos state Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu was also
said to have been arrested by DSS in his residence no 26,
Bourdilion road, Ikoyi Lagos.
The main reason for the arrest of these two prominent
politicians is yet to be Known but our source has it that EFCC
and ICPC has sent different letters of invitation to former
president Olusegun Obasanjo and TInubu due to different
allegations which was levelled against them but they refused
to yield to their request.
Former president Olusegun Obasanjo was said to have been involved in Herlibuton bribery case and according to the ongoing Investigation by the National Assembly on power sector, an underground source has it that the former president was said to have embelzzled 570billion naira which was budgeted for the power sector from 2005-2007.
According to our conversation with one of the EFCC officers
who refused to reveal his identity, he stated that Tinubu was said to have embelzzled 63billion from 1999-2007 when he was the former Governor of Lagos state.
According to the source,Tinubu, his wife and his Lawyer and president Olusegun Obasanjo were said to be on their way but their arrival is yet to be confirmed by the EFCC
The arrest of the two prominent politicians is due to president Mohammadu Buhari Zero tolerance to corruption and his determination to fight corruption not minding whose Ox is Gored.
