The Peoples Democratic Party in Ekiti State has accused the Federal Government of plotting to kill a member of the Ekiti State House of Assembly, Afolabi Akanni, while in the custody of the State Security Services.
The party made the allegation in a statement signed by its Publicity Secretary, Jackson Adebayo, on Sunday in Ado-Ekiti.
It held that by not releasing Mr. Akanni from detention despite his failing health, there was a deliberate attempt to kill the lawmaker.
The party further stated that the refusal of the federal government to release him in the face of his health, the state government’s outcry against the violation of his human rights, there was reason to believe that the aim of his arrest was to ensure he died in detention.
It noted that the federal government had exposed itself to ridicule by not disclosing the reason for Mr. Akani’s arrest , while citing security breach which was unknown to anybody.
“The DSS itself failed to explain what the breach was, whether it was something in the make of the Boko Haram insurgency in some parts of the country or the agitation by Biafran people,” the party said.
“The DSS or any other agent of the government owed a lot of explanations on the matter because the arrest of Akanni and his continued detention despite his failing health is wicked.
“Then we want to ask when and where did he commit the security breach and of what injury does it have on the nation that the Federal Government should arrest and detain him without trial for several weeks and many other questions are crying for urgent and accurate answers.”
The party urged the federal government to charge the lawmaker to court if it seeks to be responsible.
