The visit is an indication that there is an emerging political trend. Some politicians seem to be disinterested with the All Progressives Congress and the Peoples Democratic Party. The fact that they showed solidarity means that something is in the offing. They are either thinking of forming a new political party or there are new forms of alliances and solidarity.
It is also an indictment on the anti-corruption war
embarked upon by the Federal Government. It seems people are not happy and it seems the anti-corruption war is not holistic. It shows people are beginning to be disenchanted with the anti-corruption war.- Prof. Dauda Saleh (Lecturer, Political Science and International Relations, University of Abuja)
.
Visiting these people in custody by the APC leaders portrays a kind of collusion. These people have been indicted; they (the visitors) should steer clear of them. It means they are not practising the anti-corruption tenet they are preaching. Visiting the suspects in EFCC custody means encouraging them, either psychologically or morally. So, it is a very wrong thing. As a matter of fact, the EFCC needs to investigate the visitors as well.
