The Leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, have demanded the
immediate release of all members of their party that are currently in
EFCC detention. Rising from its National Executive Committee NEC meeting
in Abuja yesterday May 17th, the leadership of the party decried the
"selective probe" of PDP members by the anti-graft agency. According to
the party, it is
"a case of witch-hunt and unnecessary oppression aimed at silencing
members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)".
The party demanded that their members who have been arrested be released
immediately or be charged to Court without further delay.
