We Support Buhari’s Anti-Corruption But Must Treat Our Arrested Members With Fairness – Metuh

1 Min Read

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has urged the President Muhammadu Buhari led Federal government to be fair and transparent in its investigation and trial processes of PDP members while reiterating that the party is not against the arrest of its erring members.

While lending his voice to Chief Raymond Dokpesi’s arrest over his alleged involvement in financial deals with the office of National Security Adviser to former President Goodluck Jonathan, retired Colonel Sambo Dasuki, the PDP national publicity secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh, said that the party was completely in support of President Muhammadu Buhari’s anti-corruption drive.

The party however said people arrested should not be presumed guilty until after investigation.

He added that the PDP was neither defending Dasuki nor exonerating  him from the alleged crime but that a transparent process of investigation should be done.

“We have made it clear that we are completely in support of the anti-corruption drive.  We are not saying anything against it, all we are saying is let it not be as if people have already been presumed guilty,” he said.
