National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, John Oyegun has reacted to insinuations that some of its party members are behind the probe of the wife of the Senate President, Toyin Saraki by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.
Speaking with Journalists in Abuja on Wednesday, Oyegun absolved the party of any blame in the matter, saying that EFCC was only doing what it deemed necessary.
He said: “I want to assure you without doubts that the APC absolutely has nothing to do with the matter. She’s not on trial by the way. It is an investigation that has to do with the Senate President’s wife.
“You saw all the speculations in the media. As a matter of fact, this could have been triggered by the opposition party itself. The PDP has its branch in Kwara. They have to be nudged to make a denounce that they were not the originators of the petition or whatever triggered this investigation.”
“We are completely, totally, absolutely, innocent of it. What we have not done like in the PDP days is to rush and interfere with the processes of the EFCC which our president has made quite clearly. Everybody should be ready to carry out their legitimate functions without interference. The EFCC is doing what it thinks it has to do.”
it is good to probe the corrupt people
