Dele Momodu

Ace journalist, Dele Momodu has reacted to the controversial clash between the Department of State Security DSS and the Nigeria Correctional Service, NCS, on Tuesday, July 25, at the Federal High Court in Lagos, over the suspended governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Godwin Emefiele.

Both agencies got physical over who would whisk Emefiele out of the court after the judge granted him N20 million bail.

Reacting to the clash, the former presidential aspirant stated that elder statesmen in the country should not keep quiet while such is happening under a civilian regime.

He wrote;

‘’What an ugly scene right inside court premises in Nigeria, under a civilian regime, and our elder statesmen are keeping quiet!!! What exactly are EMEFIELE’s crimes? A court of Law has granted him bail, so let him perfect his bail conditions, instead of all this gragra… We keep disgracing our country in the name of ABSOLUTE POWER…

I remember an African President who told his successor not to harass any member of his team because whatever they did or did not do were duly authorized by him and he was ready to go to jail on their behalf… THAT’S A MAN…”
