Hon. Sada Soli criticized the EFCC’s approach, expressing disapproval in a statement. He urged President Bola Tinubu and all conscientious Nigerians to address the issue of preferential foreign exchange allocations, emphasizing the need to maintain decorum to prevent potential disharmony.

Soli expressed concern about the recent invasion, stating it could negatively impact stability, progress, and unity in the country. He questioned the EFCC’s approach, highlighting the importance of careful, rigorous investigations and diligent prosecution by professionals rather than a show of force.

The statement stressed the significance of handling such probes discreetly, especially during economic challenges, to avoid sending the wrong signals and maintain the nation’s reputation. Soli called for a deviation from the gung-ho approach and emphasized the need for respect for etiquette and the rule of law in conducting investigations involving major businesses.

“Don’t come to APC. Stay in ADC and scatter them. We like what you’re doing. Don’t mind former governor Yahaya Bello, who said you should join APC. No, no, no, stay in ADC and win your election. Also, bring Bala Gombe, and we’ll support him. Good luck in court,” he was quoted as saying.

Meanwhile, fresh tension has emerged within the African Democratic Congress as factional leader Nafiu Bala accused former national chairman Ralph Nwosu of misrepresenting the purpose of a recent party event.

Bala, speaking in an interview on AIT on Monday, said he was invited to what he believed was a routine meeting to welcome new members but later discovered it was used to announce a new leadership structure led by David Mark.
