Hiding Senator

For some weeks now, the question most people are asking is -WHERE IS IYABO?

Where could she be hiding? Why is she frustrating her trial?

The distiguished Senator of the Federal Rebuplic of Nigeria and the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Health, Senator Iyabo Obasanjo-Bello has refused, neglected and/or failed to appear before the Federal High Court to respond to the charges against her.

Iyabo Obasanjo-Bello, is the first daughter of the former President, Olusegun Obasanjo.

Obasanjo-Bello (represented by her Lawyer) sees no reason to be in court, but she is challenging the jurisdiction of the Court and at the same time, she is also praying the Court for an injunction to restrain the EFCC from ‘harassing’ her! Hmmm! Aunty Iyabo even wants the Court to QUASH the charges against her! Why? Is she above the Law?

If Mrs. Iyabo Obasanjo-Bello really have nothing to hide, then she should submit herself to trial!

For the records, the EFCC is a creation of the former President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo to fight corruption. In a bid to fight corruption, the EFCC has exposed a fraud involving N300,000,000. The right thing and most honourable thing to do is for Dr. Iyabo Obasanjo-Bello to appear in court and respond to the allegations against her! She should stop playing the victim here! Nobody is above the law.

According to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) (and most Nigerians) Iyabo is afraid of standing trial in the face of overwhelming evidence against her over the N300 million fraud at the Federal Ministry of Health. If she is innocent as she claims, then she ought to show her face!

Question 1: Why is Aunty Iyabo hiding?

Question 2: What is Iyabo afraid of?

Question 3: How long will the hiding last?
