UK Police Arrests Raymond Dokpesi

Dokpesi was arrested while travelling to the UK from Frankfurt, Germany.

The media chief had boarded a Lufthansa Flight LH916 from Frankfurt to London and was subsequently picked up at Terminal 2 of Heathrow Airport in London.

Reports say a source confirmed Dokpesi’s arrest.

The source said, “We were on a flight from Frankfurt to London and as we are about to arrive in London, we were informed that we should all stay in our seats when the aircraft lands and that the Police wanted to do something. We were informed that there will be a police operation.

“So when we landed, the police came in and ask who is Raymond Dokpesi and they now took him away. He was wearing agbada. He was arrested in London.”

Reports also say Dokpesi would appear in court on Monday for remand.

Meanwhile, Kanyi Daily reported that former Kaduna Senator, Shehu Sani has described Nigeria’s democracy as “salad with mayonnaise.”

Sani stated this while weighing in on the politics around the three major presidential candidates and the reports that opposition governors are working with them.
