“Tunde Bakare cautions against the practice of ‘Emilokan’ politics, emphasizing his earlier advice.”

Date:

Last Thursday, the Federal High Court in Lagos set a date, August 15, to address an application by Emefiele, who is seeking to suspend his trial initiated by the Federal Government through the DSS.

In response, Bakare expressed concerns about the DSS’s actions, questioning their professionalism and commitment to upholding the rule of law.

The reported intrusion into EFCC premises and the handling of Emefiele’s case have sparked conversations about the importance of due process and fair application of justice.

Bakare pointed out that the handling of the Emefiele case has sent a notable message to the international community, shedding light on the current President’s stance on the fight against corruption.

The cleric criticized the administration’s approach to combating corruption, likening it to singling out individuals as “political adversaries,” while other significant threats to Nigeria’s well-being remain untouched.

While acknowledging that Emefiele should face prosecution if found guilty, Bakare argued that the suspended CBN governor shouldn’t be used as a mere scapegoat.

He emphasized that Emefiele’s decisions in managing the country’s monetary affairs might have been misguided, but he couldn’t have acted without approval from the President.
