Former President Olusegun
Obasanjo says the government of President Muhammadu Buhari is daily perfecting
plans on how to curtail his personal liberties and hang a crime on him.
Obasanjo said this on
Friday in a statement released on his behalf by Kehinde Akinyemi, his
spokesman.
He said a part of the plan
was to seize his International passport and clamp him into detention
indefinitely, in order to prevent him from further expressing angst on the
pervasive mediocrity in the quality of governance, economic management and in
the protection of lives and property by the government.
Obasanjo added that since
that could expose the government to a swath of international condemnation, embarrassment
and outrage, it is said that another plot being hatched is to cause the
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to re-open investigation into
the activities of Chief Obasanjo’s administration using false witnesses and
documents.
Obasanjo said he would not
have raised the alarm were it not for the ongoing victimization of Speaker
Yakubu Dogara of the House of Representatives and Senate President Bukola
Saraki.
THE
STATEMENT
Impeccable
security sources have alleged Chief Obasanjo’s name is on their watch list and
that the security of his life cannot be guaranteed,” read the statement.
According
to these informants, many of who are in the top echelon of the nation’s
security management and close to the corridors of power, the operatives are
daily perfecting how to curtail the personal liberties of the former president
and hang a crime on him.
“Ordinarily,
we would not have dignified these reports with a response but for the fact that
many of these informants are not known for flippant and frivolous talks.
Secondly, this Government has demonstrably exhibited apathy, and in some cases,
encouraged by its conduct, daily loss of lives and property in many States of
the country, the office cannot be indifferent.
We
are currently in a nation where the Number Three citizen is currently being
harangued and the Number Four citizen is facing similar threat within the same
Government they serve. There is a groundswell of our nationals that live in
fear that they could be hounded, harassed, maimed or even killed as the battle
for 2019 takes this worrisome dimension,” he said.
For
Chief Obasanjo, this is a joke carried too far and being someone who do not act
on unofficial information, he had cautioned all informants and adopted a
wait-and-see attitude to the bestial propositions allegedly being contemplated
to cow, cage and embarrass him.
The
content of the alleged beastly designs, it was learnt are two-fold for now.
One, to seize his International Passport and clamp him into detention
indefinitely, in order to prevent him from further expressing angst on the
pervasive mediocrity in the quality of governance, economic management and in
the protection of lives and property by the government.
But,
since that could expose the government to a swath of international
condemnation, embarrassment and outrage, it is said that another plot being
hatched is to cause the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to
re-open investigation into the activities of Chief Obasanjo’s administration
using false witnesses and documents. This will be a re-enactment of the Abacha
era in which Chief Obasanjo was one of the principal victims.
The
same EFCC that had conducted a clinical investigation on the activities of
Obasanjo in and out of Government, it was said, would now be made to stand down
the existing report that gave Chief Obasanjo a clean bill of health on the
probes are now to get him indicted, fair or foul for possible prosecution and
persecution like it is being done to real and perceived opponents, enemies and
critics of this government.
