Buruji Kashamu’s spokesperson, Austin Oniyokor issued a statement about the
ongoing incident between NDLEA and Kashamu thus:
“This latest onslaught
is a confirmation of the alleged plot to illegally abduct him in spite of the
pending suit against this illegality”.
“The National Drug Law
Enforcement Agency(NDLEA) this morning (Saturday,23rd May, 2015) at about
4:30am surrounded the Lekki Phase 1, Lagos residence of Prince Buruji Kashamu
to allegedly effect his arrest following a purported extradition request from the
US.
“This latest onslaught
is a confirmation of the alleged plot to illegally abduct him in spite of the
pending suit against this illegality. As a matter of fact, the court has
ordered parties in the matter including the NDLEA to maintain status quo until
judgment is delivered on Wednesday 27th May 2015.
“We have confirmed that
they do not have a warrant of arrest, just as the office of the Attorney
General of the Federation (AGF) and Minister of Justice has said that it did
not give any order to carry out this illegality,” the statement said.
