The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, (NDLEA) on Thursday, May 28, 2015 vacates completely from the Lekki Phase 1, Lagos residence of Ogun Senator-elect, Buruji Kashamu, ending a 6-day siege.
This was made known to The Bloom Gist through a statement by Kashamu’s media aide, Austin Oniyokor. He availed that the senator-elect would address the media, Nigerians and the whole world on his ordeal after his undergoing a medical check up.
“After six long nightmarish days and nights that the agents of the NDLEA laid siege to the Lagos residence of senator-elect, Prince Buruji Kashamu, despite valid and subsisting court orders directing them to vacate the place, we are pleased to announce that they have left the facility.
“They left at exactly 7:45pm. But this was after the agency displayed a high level of brigandage and lawlessness that is only fit for a failed state.
“However, we thank the Almighty God for His infinite mercies. He is the one who thwarts the plans of the crafty, so that their hands achieve no success.
“We also salute the judiciary for once again rising to the occasion and proving yet that it is truly the last hope of the common man and the oppressed.
“We are grateful that the judiciary has again affirmed Buruji Kashamu’s innocence of the charges against him, thus turning for good what was meant for evil.”
