Fani Kayode blasts EFCC, Buhari over arrest of his wife, 8-month-old son

Read his statement: "This govt is sick and cowardly and so are the EFCC. If you have a problem with me face me and leave

my family alone. My wife traveled to Ado Ekiti to see my friend and brother Gov. Fayose and his family

They went to Access Bank in Ado Ekiti to get some money. When they got there my 8 month old son and wife were illegally detained, brutalised and put under arrest on the orders of the EFCC.

She has never had any business with me, she has never been formally invited by the EFCC or asked any questions about her transactions and neither have they written to her on any issue even though they are always sending letters to my house and sending people there.

If Buhari wants to deal with me why doesnt he face me like a man obstead of trying to harm and hurt my 8 month old son and wife. Had it not been for the intervention of Gov. Fayose they would have been taken them away and subjected them to all manner of harm and indignities simply because she is married to me.

This was an account that has N200k in it and that has never had more than N500k. She has operated it since 2005 and she stopped using it in 2013. The account has no connection with me and I did not know it existed till today.
In an attempt to starve and harass me and my family all my accounts and wifes accounts have been frozen. Now they are resorting to arresting peoples wives and children for no just cause.

Had it not been for the governors intervention and prescence the bank would have been burnt down by the crowd. This is Buhari's Nigeria and we will resist his wickedness and tyranny.

We intend to sue the bank and to sue the EFCC for this illegal and wicked action. They have no right to do this. If they want to see my wife all they need to do is to invite her. We have nothing to fear. They do not need to be so primitive and barbaric to people."
