FG accused of desperate moves to manufacture evidence against Tinubu

Posted by admin Latest Politics Wednesday, September 21st, 2011

There is now verifiable information that the office of the Attorney General of the Federation and some members in the leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), who may have found sympathetic ears in the presidency are behind the ongoing attempt to destabilize and drag the name of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu in the mud.

Presently, according to a statement issued from Tinubu’s media office, desperate moves were afoot by the office of the AGF to find by all means and to manufacture enough evidence to prove their case against Nigeria’s leading opposition voice, Asiwaju Tinubu, the national leader of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN).

Another dimension of the desperate moves of these individuals include the recent media leaks from the office of the AGF that the charges against Asiwaju Tinubu would be amended to include perjury so as to strengthen their so-called “iron clad case” against the national leader of Nigeria’s leading opposition party, ACN.

“It is deceitful and clear subterfuge for government to continue to mouth the rule of law, while hounding political opponents and applying different standards of justice to members of the opposition while shielding its members from prosecution. Unfortunately, Nigeria’s democracy remains imperiled under the clutches of a ruling party that no longer wants to rule for 60 years but forever.

“For PDP and a government that claims they believe in the rule of law and with the Freedom of Information law in force, one would want to ask why they are more interested in publishing the list of accounts allegedly traced to Asiwaju Tinubu without disclosing how much was involved and other relevant details.”

“The same act gives them the access for full disclosure. There is a clear plot to deceive the public into believing that Tinubu, Nigeria’s leading opposition leader stashed away millions in foreign bank accounts,” the statement added.
