Ekweremadu Scoffs At Reports Of His Arrest

Former Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Ike Ekweremadu, has dismissed as fake reports of his arrest by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), assuring his supporters that there was nothing to worry about.

He said the report, like others before it, represented only the “unholy imagination of the authors and their sponsors”

In a post vide his verified Facebook account, @iamekweremadu, the Senator said: “My attention has been called to a fake story making the round purporting that I was arrested by the EFCC. I could not have bothered about such spurious tales, but for the concerns shown by my friends and supporters through calls and messages.

“There was no such arrest and I have never been arrested by the EFCC,” Ekweremadu said.

“The public should, therefore, ignore this and other such hatchet reports and smear campaigns as they only represent the unholy imaginations of the authors and their sponsors”.

The latest reports narrowing at Ekweremadu follows the rash of media trials directed against him by the former leadership of the EFCC under Ibrahim Magu.

 GreenWhiteGreen GWG reports that Ekweremadu was at one time during the first term of President Muhammadu Buhari charged for forgery of the Senate Standing Rule but the government’s special counsel hired to prosecute him advised that the charge be withdrawn in the face of claims that it was hollow.
