They want him to refund campaign funds-Fani Kayode’s ‘wife’ Precious speaks on his continued detention by the EFCC

The arraignment of former Minister of Aviation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode and his Finance counterpart, Senator Nenadi Usman, has been fixed for Tuesday before Justice Sule Hassan of the Federal High Court in Lagos.
Ahead of his arraignment, Fani-Kayode has filed a bail application through his lawyer, Ahmed Raji (SAN).
According to the Nation,in an affidavit in support of the motion for bail, Fani-Kayode’s wife, Precious said her husband told EFCC all he knew about the funding of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) campaign, and that, as the Director of Publicity, no money was paid into his account.
She said:

“All the monies paid into his account were from private entities and they were judiciously used to prosecute the PDP 2015 presidential campaign.
“‎He was granted administrative bail with onerous conditions. The said bail conditions were met on Thursday, the 12th day of May, 2016, yet the complainant/respondent (EFCC) has refused to release the defendant/applicant till date.”
Mrs. Fani-Kayode said the commission’s operatives interrogated him three times about the campaign money, adding that no new issue and or petition was raised or written against him.
“I was there during one of the interrogation sessions, and what the operatives were asking the defendant/applicant was to refund the campaign funds and nothing more.
“The instant charges against him were merely brought to justify his unconstitutional detention by the complainant/respondent,” Mrs Fani-Kayode said.

According to her, EFCC was only keeping him so as “to ask him to refund the campaign funds expended for the PDP 2015 Presidential Campaign in respect of which he was the Director of Publicity.”
