“It speaks volumes that the Buhari Presidency had remained silent in the face of this huge fraud involving Mr President’s son in-law; a beneficiary of the primitive family patronage in the Buhari administration, only for certain members of the cabal to be reportedly mounting pressure on the ICPC to let him off the hook,” the statement read in part.
