The Special Investigator to the Special Presidential Investigation Panel on Recovery of Public Property, Evangelist Victor Uwajeh, has accused President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration of bias in its anti-corruption crusade.
Uwajeh said this in a statement on Tuesday in which he explained the circumstances of his sack by the government.
He said he was sacked less than two months after his appointment because the administration had a mindset about who should be prosecuted at all costs.
He said he was specifically detailed to trace the assets of the wife of former President Goodluck Jonathan, Patience; President of the Senate, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki; his deputy, Ike Ekweremadu; former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, and others.
The statement by Uwajeh reads: “It was the procedure of the panel to courier documents to me from Nigeria for dispatch to various agencies in the United Kingdom and worldwide. Soon after I realised that the panel had a mindset towards certain individuals and groups by the documents it sent to me.
“Documents sent to me from Abuja to dispatch to the Serious Fraud Office and Home Office, Metropolitan Police, FBI and EUROPOL had the names of the following senators: Senate President, Abubakar Bukola Saraki, Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, Sen. Albert Bassey Akpan and Sen. Stella Adaeze Oduah.
“I was also given a list which includes former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, Femi Fani- Kayode, Sen. James Manager, Governor Nyesom Wike, Senator Jonah Jang, and Patience Jonathan, among others.”
