Saliu, a governorship candidate (NNPP) in Kogi State in 2023, wants the court to order the police to unfreeze the account number 1000129689 with Globus Bank belonging to Emperor City Integrated Limited, where he is the alter ego and signatory for being a violation of his fundamental rights.
He is also asking the court to declare that the police publication of his picture and name in the Special Police Gazette bulletin as a wanted person with Ref No: CB: 3510/LX/FHQ/SEB/ABJ/T.7/Vo. 1/20 amounted to the violation of his fundamental rights as they lacked such powers “to engage in the act of debt recovery for the 3rd defendant (Olorunfemi) who is a subscriber to the applicant’s (Saliu’s) estate under construction.” is praying the court to order the police to issue an apology to be published in the Special Police Gazette bulletin and two national dailies.
Earlier this month, the police declared Saliu who is the Chief Executive Officer of Almubee Group wanted on the allegation that he took N153 million from seven clients and refused to allocate the plots of land he agreed to offer them in the Wuye area of Abuja. The police claimed Musa (also known as Ojemanyareju and Emperor Almubee) “wanted for failing to honour police invitation over an allegation of obtaining money under false pretence, cheating and breach of trust”.
