Isaac Fayose, a Nigerian media personality, has publicly criticized the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) for conducting arrests without proper warrants.
He emphasized that while arrests are a routine part of law enforcement, proceeding without a warrant is irregular and undermines the rule of law.Fayose's comments come amid ongoing legal proceedings involving his brother, former Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose, who is facing multiple charges related to alleged financial misconduct. The EFCC has accused the former governor of embezzling funds during his tenure, with cases pending in various courts.
Critics, including Fayose, argue that such actions by the EFCC could erode public trust in the justice system and potentially violate constitutional rights. He called for adherence to legal procedures to ensure fairness and uphold the integrity of law enforcement practices.
The EFCC has not publicly responded to Fayose's remarks. The situation continues to attract attention from legal experts and the public, highlighting concerns over due process and the conduct of anti-corruption agencies in Nigeria.
