UPDATE: Buruji Kashamu Placed under House Arrest

NDLEA operatives who stormed the Lekki home of Prince Buruji Kashamu, will wait till Monday, to know whether they could carry away their prey.

Latest report said the senator-elect from Ogun state was able to delay his arrest because the NDLEA operatives did not come with an elementary paper: a warrant of arrest. Reports now said that the operatives have now decided to keep Kashamu indoors till Monday when they would seek a court order to effect the arrest.

Kashamu’s lawyers will also be going to court to challenge the move, according to Buruji’s media aide, Austin Oniyokor. Oniyokor in a statement said that the latest onslaught is a confirmation of the alleged plot to illegally abduct him in spite of the pending suit against this illegality.

Former Nigerian leader, Olusegun Obasanjo had been accused by Buruji for being the mastermind of the plan to remove him to the United States. But now, Buruji is accusing Chief Bode George, a leader of the PDP. Observers, however, said Chief George is not known to be politically opposed to Buruji, in recent times.
