The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Adamawa State has accused the All Progressive Congres (APC) governorship candidate in the state, Sen Aishatu Ahmed Dahiru, popularly known as Binani, of attempting to protect herself from indictment by approaching a Federal High Court in Abuja to stop the prosecution of the suspended Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC), Hudu Yunusa-Ari.
The state secretary of PDP, Alhaji Idris Yahya, stated this in Yola while addressing newsmen, on Wednesday.
Binani had approached a Federal High Court in Abuja, seeking to stop the prosecution of the suspended Adamawa RWC, Yunusa-Ari, by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
Yahya said even before the ignoble role of the suspended Adamawa REC in the governorship election, the party had complained severally about Binani and her desperation, but neither her party nor INEC showed any concern about it.
He said the latest attempt by Binani to stop the prosecution of Yunusa-Ari, only confirmed her as the “chief executioner and principal actor” in the attempted civilian coup orchestrated by the suspended Adamawa REC.
“Binani by this action has shown herself to be the chief executioner and principal actor in the attempted civilian coup orchestrated by the suspended Adamawa Resident Electoral Commissioner, Yunusa Ari-Hudu, who usurped the returning officer and illegally, declared her winner of Adamawa governorship elections even when collation of results for the supplementary governorship polls were still being collated. Her intention is to protect Hudu because she knows what she has done. Because with the prosecution of Hudu, she knows she will be indicted,” he said.
Yahya also alleged that Binani had yet to face prosecution for her role in the saga because of the invincible hands backing her.
“Binani I believe has not faced prosecution because of the invisible hands behind her otherwise she ought to be prosecuted for aiding and abetting Hudu’s illegal declaration of her as the winner of the Adamawa governorship elections.
“You were part of a treasonable plot and now you are going back asking your lawyer to stop the prosecution of the suspended REC who the police by its investigations said it has established a prima facie case against him,” the PDP Secretary added.
He appealed to President Bola Tinubu to intervene in order to resist Binani’s push to stop the prosecution of her close ally in the failed civilian coup which she tried to orchestrate in Adamawa.
