THE Osun State Peoples Democratic Party, PDP has described as the conditions given by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission EFCC, for the release of Senator Iyiola Omisore, who it arrested in Abuja on Sunday morning after a raid on his house as impossible to fulfil.

A statement by the party’s spokesman in Osun, Prince Diran Odeyemi, the party said the EFCC in a letter handed over to Senator Omisore after several hours of interrogation, asked him to produce two serving directors in any of the federal ministries or agency with landed property in Maitama or Asokoro area of Abuja. The sureties must submit the original C of O of the said landed properties to the commission.

“We know too well of a standing instruction to serving civil servants not to stand as sureties in any matter and wonder why EFCC is giving a condition they have already blocked. We will approach the court to seek Senator Omisore’s release and wonder why EFCC has turned itself to an agent of persecution instead of prosecution,” he said.
