Attempted arrest Of Muhuyi: Dadiyata on my mind

On the morning of Monday 28th March 2022 Nigerians woke up to scary news about an attempted arrest of former chairman of Kano state Anti corruption commission, Muhuyi Magaji Rimin Gado, or can we say its an attempted abduction.

Most of us residing in Kaduna just remember what happened in the month of August 2019 when some people wearing red caps went to the residence of a social media warlord Abubakar Dadiyata known as Abu Hanifa Dadiyata, Handcuffed him, and went away with him inside his car.

Dadiyata’s scenario sent a serious scary message to social media critics like him, when the fourth estate of the realm tried to find out the whereabouts of Abubakar Dadiyata, non of the security agencies admitted that Dadiyata is with them, with the abduction spree throughout Nigeria no kidnapper called to ask for ransom,they said all the rest is now history,are we trying to witness another Dadiyata scenario in Barrister Muhyi Magaji Rimin Gado?.

When the police cordoned off access to Muhuyi’s residence I taught it was a normal Police professional Operation since the suspended chairman is at logger heads with Kano state government when he was removed from office in July 2021.

But after all the Sunday night scary drama in the vicinity of Muhuyi’s residence which led him to a tactical escape was the initial denial by the police spokesperson in Kano, and when Barrister Muhuyi’s eldest son Zahraddin went to Sharada Divisional Police station to report, they also denied it, so even the general public were confused,the question people mostly asked have they succeeded in going with the former Kano Anti corruption chairman will they admit he is with them or he will be given Dadiyata treatment which is still sketchy almost three years down.

It should be known that Muhyi Magaji’s fundamental human rights have to be reinforced by those who swore to protect them as enshrined in the constitution of the federal republic of Nigeria 1999.

One all the allegations being leveled against the former anti-corruption Boss are before the courts of law, I also read an opinion by a former professional security officer as reported by the Nigerian Sketch , an online Newspaper about cordoning of Muhyi’s residence that the police acted unprofessionally,they have embarrassed the institution, they also did not succeed on their mission to arrest Barrister Muhyi Magaji Rimin Gado opined the expert.

Another gaffe said to have committed which is an embarrassment PR wise was that after many hours the police said they went to the house to deliver an invitation to Mr. Rimingado, while in the past they just place a phone call for him to report to their office which he has been doing.

So if it’s a political witch-hunt let the police and Kano state government come out clear from the present mess in trying to nail Muhyi Magaji while in essence, they are trying to nail themselves.
