District in the National Assembly, Prince Buruji
Kashamu, has raised the alarm over a plot by the
National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) to
abduct him as well as plans by some individuals to
assassinate him.
In a statement issued yesterday in Lagos, Kashamu
alleged that the plot to abduct him was being
coordinated by the NDLEA and some powerful
individuals in the agency.

Kashamu said that the plot was to either have him
abducted or attacked on the streets or at a social
function. He wondered why anyone would want to
usurp legitimate authorities and resort to such crude
tactics and self-help in a democratic Nigeria.
“I do not know what I have done to them that they
want to do as if Nigeria is a Banana Republic. If
anyone thinks he has a case against me, he should
approach the courts and allow the rule of law to
prevail.
“I urge the masses and Nigerians in general to help
me beseech the Almighty Allah who has my
help and shield to continue to protect and guide me
from all manners of evil machinations. They should
not kill me for my family and the thousands of
Nigerians who depend on me for their daily living.
“Politics should not be a do-or-die affair. I will
always say and stand by the truth in the interest of
the masses. I will always rise above primordial
sentiments and selfish interest in all my dealings, in
and out of politics,” Kashamu said.
The Senator urged the State, his family members
and associates to know those to hold responsible
should anything untoward happen to him.
