The political parties and CSOs urged Tinubu not to give suspended governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele the same unlawful treatment

that given to former National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki by former President Muhammadu Buhari administration.

In a statement jointly signed by the deputy national publicity secretary of the CNPP, comrade James Ezema and the national secretary of the CSOs, Alhaji Ali Abacha said “playing the same APC card against Emefiele will clearly portray the president in bad light after pledging to uphold the rule of law in his June 12 message to Nigerians.”

They said detaining the suspended CBN governor for over a month without trial, only to charge him for illegal possession of firearms and ammunition at a time the court has already ordered his release is totally against the principles of the rule of law, fairness, and justice that the president has preached since May 29.

They said the charges against Emefiele followed the same old tricks of the APC government, which was invented in 2015, to detain citizens without trial. “If President Tinubu is truly a democrat as he has continued to preach, his government must not adopt the APC’s eight-year-old brutal actions against suspected political enemies.
