The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), has
given conditions for the release of Sen Iyiola Omisore who was arrested in
Abuja yesterday morning after a raid and thorough search of his house.
A statement released by Diran Odeyemi, the spokesperson
of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Osun State, explained that in a letter
handed over to Sen. Omisore by the EFCC after several hours of interrogation
asked him to produce two serving Directors in any of the Federal Ministries or
Agency with landed property in quarters of Maitama or Asokoro area of Abuja
while the Sureties must submit the original C of O of the said landed
properties to the commission.
Diran who however frowned at the conditions said they
will be approaching the court. “We know too well of a standing instructions to
serving civil servants not to stand as Sureties in any matter and wonder why
EFCC is giving a condition they have already blocked”
“We will approach the court to seek Sen Omisore’s release
and wonder why EFCC has turned itself to an agent of persecution instead of
prosecution”, he added.
