Good morning friends and Good morning to all Nigerians. The following tweets are my reaction to recent developments. #MO— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
The Invasion and Raid of my Residence yesterday by Agents of the State is a sad throwback to a Tyrannical Past that is Better Forgotten.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
In 16 years of Democracy, we thought we had conquered despotism for good in Nigeria but in one year, this Government has brought it back.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
Let me reiterate clearly: I have never received any invitation from EFCC over any issue up till date. This invasion therefore is premature.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
Furthermore, no Court ordered a Raid on my house or Seizure of my belongings. Any such move is Illegal and will be fought against Legally.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
Such Invasion and Raid of my house without prior Invitation from EFCC to me or any Court Order towards this Signals a Return to Despotism.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
The Illegal Invasion and Raid is a Mockery of Justice, an Expression of Disdain towards the Judicial System and a terribly Bad Precedent.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
If the harassment of PDP members will help Government to Deliver Good Governance, many of us would Submit ourselves willingly to Martyrdom.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
If hounding PDP members will solve Nigeria's Economic Woes then we Welcome it. This Rather is a Woeful Attempt to Distract from those Woes.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
But Unfortunately, harassing PDP leaders is not in any way Equal to the Delivery of Good Governance, No Matter who Applauds such Illegality.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
The aim of Govt is to distract the People from their Woes. Such tactics have been tried before, in Nigeria and elsewhere, and they failed.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
I put close to Two Decades into Public Service, in Opposition and in Government, all with an Unblemished Record and a Clear Conscience.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
To put one's family and dependents through such trauma of illegal invasion, in this holy month of Ramadan is an unfair reward for service.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
The Illegal Invasion of my house @realFFK and several others in Detention: give me NO CONFIDENCE in Government's willingness to do Justice.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
EFCC has never OFFICIALLY made public ANY investigation of my record in Government at ANY TIME before this Illegal Invasion of my house.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
Suggestions of an EFCC investigation have dwelt Solely in the Realm of Rumours, over which I have sued Several Media Organisations to Court.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
The Rumour before was that of a $2.7billion arms issue, now they say it is NSA imprest account - let them make the Documents Public.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
I cannot submit myself to such glaring witchhunt, Injustice and Charade but I'll fight it legally, with God and Clear Conscience on my side.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
Since EFCC opted to make this a media trial/circus, let them make public ANY DOCUMENT linking me or ANY of my children to ANY financial scam— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
The Allegations are Lies, not backed by Fact or Evidence but a Burning Desire to Obliterate the Opposition and keep Nigerians Distracted.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
Rumours of Extradition are also lies - false allegations cannot stand up to any Decent Legal Inquiry in a Civilised System such as in the US— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
I Welcome an Extradition Process as it will Expose the Shenanigans going on with their fraudulently fictitious fight against 'Corruption'.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
This is a Govt that promotes Ethnic Divisions, Distractions from Issues, Political Persecution and Official Gangsterism from High Places.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
This is a Govt determined to outdo the abysmal and ignominious Economic Records of Dec. 31, 1983 to Aug. 27, 1985 that ended in shame.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
Pursuing Obanikoro, hounding Madueke, detaining FFK and Dasuki will not distract from the failure of Govt to deliver on ITS OWN PROMISES.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
Nigerians must remain Steadfast in Condemning the Nepotism, Ethnic Division and Economic Illiteracy that has Characterised this Govt.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
I remain Confident in my Ultimate Vindication and urge EFCC to make Public any Investigation so far conducted without any Invitation to me.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
I also remain Unshaken in my Belief that Truth will Prevail over Falsehood as ever before, no matter how Exciting the Falsehood may Sound.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
I commit Myself, My Family, My Allies and My Friends into the hands of the Almighty God to Whom ALL OF US will give account one day.— Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 15, 2016
