Kashamu stranded as NDLEA continues Lagos home siege

Firstclass newsline learnt that Contrary to widespread report that
Peoples Democratic Party Senator-Elect and prominent businessman,
Buruji Kashamu, has been picked up by the operatives of the National
Drug Law Enforcement Agency, the politician is still holed up in his
Lekki, Lagos home as of 3.05pm on Saturday.
While the NDLEA has yet to make an official statement on the reason
for laying a day-long siege to Kashamu home, the media aide to the
Ogun East Senator-Elect, Austin Oniyokor, told a source on the
telephone that the operatives of the anti-narcotic agency were still
outside Kashamu's mansion in Lekki.
"They are still outside; they have not left," he said in low tone.
When asked about the whereabouts of his principal, Oniyokor, who had
described the siege as illegal, said, "He is here; he is inside."
Spokesman for NDLEA, Mitchel Ofoyeju, told our correspondent at 3pm
that he had yet to get to his office in Ikoyi to clarify the
development.
"In situations like this, you cannot just confirm anything. When I get
to the office, I should be able to clarify the things involved," he
added.
If certain information on the Internet is anything to believe, Kashamu
may be on his way to the US on Friday, May 29, the day of the
inauguration of President-Elect, Muhammadu Buhari, via Delta Airline,
to face his controversial alleged drug-related charges.
