Precious Chikwendu, wife of Femi Fani-Kayode, says her husband will be vindicated at the end of his investigation by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
The former minister is being held over an N840 million cash he allegedly received as spokesman of Goodluck Jonathan’s Campaign Organisation, a few days to the last presidential election.
Fani-Kayode has been in the custody of the EFCC since May 9.
On Monday, the anti-graft agency secured a court order to keep him in custody for 21 days.
Reacting in a terse statement issued yesterday, Chikwendu said her “lion” would overcome “the lies and injustice.”
According to her, “If life was a movie I’m sure we would have our fingers on the fast forward button to skip so many scenes that ain’t just fair.
“But this is reality and in reality we live through it. It’s a time when strength and courage comes in play and only the brave can afford both. My lion (Femi Fani-Kayode) will walk through this webby den of lies and injustice.
“Persecution and trials are common, only the weak fear them. He remains brave and strong through all these and soon he will be vindicated. I stand with my husband Femi Fani-Kayode.”
