What EFCC Did To Me And My Son In Ekiti – Fani-Kayode’s wife

Precious Fani-Kayode, wife of former minister of aviation has explained what transpired between her and some officials of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, in Ekiti State Monday. Mrs. Fani-Kayode had gone to Ado-Ekiti, the Ekiti State capital, to see Governor Ayodele Fayose when she stopped at the branch of Access Bank in the town to withdraw money. She
was stopped by some officials of the anti-graft agency. Speaking with Punch after the drama, Mrs. Fani-Kayode lamented that she was badly treated by the officials while her baby was denied food.

She warned the anti-graft agency to leave her alone as she was not a politician but a private person. She stated, “I’m not a politician and that account had been dormant for about five years. I only activated it last month in Port Harcourt. “I decided to go to Access Bank to make some withdrawals when I was detained on the instructions of the EFCC. “They told me the account had been frozen and they were asked by the EFCC to arrest me on the spot.

“I have been operating the account since 2005 when I was a student in the university. They had earlier frozen my two bank accounts which they have not opened till today and I have been waiting for them to invite me, but up till today, they have not.

--> “The balance in the account is just N200,000; so, I don’t know what their interest is. I’m a private person. I have not received any political fund; so, why are they trying to starve my family? “That account has nothing to do with politics. This is dehumanising. I had to called the governor to inform him of the development.” Condemning the action of the EFCC and the attitude of the bank officials, Fayose warned the anti-graft agency against becoming lawless and reckless against Nigerians. Fayose added, “They can’t try that nonsense in my state. If they try it, there will be a showdown. They are over-stepping their boundary. “This is a country that operates a constitution. What kind of molestation is this, taking away the rights of Nigerians because you are investigating? “Must they terrorise people because they are in opposition? I have demanded an apology from the bank. If it fails to do that, I’m done with them. This is lawlessness.” To receive more updates from Frayokit News, kindly SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER or follow us on FACEBOOK and on TWITTER
