Prince Buruji Kashamu, the Ogun east senator, wanted in the United
States, may appear to be a tough guy, mounting a labyrinth of legal
obstacles, to stall the moves by the National Drug Law Enforcement
Agency to ship him out to Chicago.
But we can report today that Kashamu is also a faint-hearted person, not willing to take any risk about his life.
Kashamu
was billed to travel to Abuja from Lagos today, after he failed to
commit the office of the Attorney-General of the Federation and the
NDLEA for criminal contempt over extradition moves to the USA.
He
had sat in the Business class of Aero Flight 127, Abuja-bound, along
with his lawyers when the captain announced a minor problem with the
plane. The captain said the light of an indicator had not
come on
brightly enough and that the Aero engineers are fixing the problem.
To
keep the passengers at ease, the captain gave the assurance that the
problem was nothing to worry about. And that the resolution of the
problem will not take three minutes.
No sooner the captain finished
talking, than Kashamu signalled to his lawyers, asking them to alight
from the plane. Other passengers who had calmly listened to Captain
Kunle’s explanation remained glued to their seats and burst out laughing
when Buruji and his lawyers scampered away.
Aero Flight 127, which left Lagos at 14.45 landed in Abuja without incidents.
