Exam fraud: Buhari stops Adeleke’s invitation by police
President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday stopped the Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, from inviting the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the governorship election slated for Saturday in Osun State, Senator Ademola Adeleke.
The police had earlier invited Adeleke to the Force Headquarters in Abuja for the purpose of arraigning him on charges of examination malpractices, criminal conspiracy, impersonation, breach of duty and aiding and abetting.
According to PUNCH, a presidential source, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not permitted to speak on the matter, told some State House correspondents that the President had directed that Adeleke should not be invited until after Saturday’s election.
The Police Public Relations Officer, Jimoh Moshood, had in a statement told Adeleke and four others to report to the Special Investigation Panel, Force Headquarters, Abuja, immediately for arraignment in court.
The Force spokesman in a statement on Wednesday said it had filed charges against the aspirant and his co-accused.
The PDP, however, cautioned the police to desist from acting the script of the All Progressives Congress against Adeleke.
The PDP described the latest twist in the Adeleke certificate scandal, leading to what it described as laughable trumped-up charges by the police, as horrible, nauseating and displeasing.
