Popular human rights activist cum lawyer, Deji Adeyanju has made a shocking revelation.

He said: “Yahaya Bello no longer enjoys immunity and, hence should be arrested and prosecuted.”

“People say Yahaya Bello is above the law. No, he is not. It is the president that is shielding Yahaya Bello because there is no way that a man would be alleged of stealing N80 billion, the EFCC has gone to court, the EFCC has a warrant for his arrest, the EFCC attempted to arrest him, he evaded arrest.”

“Bello, the former governor of Kogi State who is currently above the law, who no longer has immunity or enjoys immunity, Bello is free, walking the streets but protesters have been arrested here in Abuja and other parts of the country and they spent two weeks in custody for protesting.”

“Their only crime is that they protested. In Katsina, protesters were arrested; they gave them a summary trial in a police station, then an adjournment was given for a month’s time. That means those protesters will be in custody for one month for protesting but Yahaya Bello walks free.”

For those who don’t know, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) had before now, initiated fraud cases against former Kogi State governor, Yahaya Bello over the misappropriation of N80.2 billion while in office.

Besides, attempts by the EFCC to arrest him and ensure he is prosecuted have failed as his whereabouts remained unknown.

The allegation making the rounds has it that Yahaya Bello is hiding in the Kogi State Government House under the instruction of the state governor, Usman Ododo.
