Gbolahan, Musiliu and Babajide Obanikoro
Former Minister of State for Defence, Musiliu Obanikoro has revealed that he and his sons are in deep political trouble with the government of the day.
Speaking during an interview, Obanikoro who had earlier said that he won’t be honouring any form of invitation from the Ibrahim Magu-led Economic and Financial Crime Commission, (EFCC), said that “from what we’re seeing now, we can tell that we’re in deep political trouble with the government of the day.”
Speaking on why his sons are out of the country, Obanikoro said, “Now, talking about my sons. Let me tell you, Jide went for a course in Holland–let me tell you, I want them to come to America, I am repeating myself– so that the two of us can have serious judicial scrutiny. Jide went to Holland for a course in fish farming. But it is convenient for the EFCC to go to a beer parlour shop and be speculating. You cannot say people should not go and improve themselves when they have interest.
“Gbolahan also has a very good reason to be out of the country. Gbolahan has a valid explanation and a genuine and honest reason to be in America. But from what we’re seeing now, we can tell that we’re in deep political trouble with the government of the day,” he said.
The Ikoyi, Lagos home of Former Minister of State for Defence, Musiliu Obanikoro, was on Tuesday, June 14, 2016 raided by operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission following allegations that the ex-minister and his sons were involved in a N4.75bn fraud.
