It is within the jurisdiction of the EFCC to arrest Bob for questioning -Oga_thelawyer
In a chat with Oluwatodimu Ige, a Nigerian lawyer popularly known as Oga_thelawyer, he noted that while EFCC might have had a reason to question Bobrisky, they are cautioned to respect the rule of law and ensure that any further legal action is handled properly through court.
"The EFCC claims they arrested Bobrisky because he refused to honour their invitation over the bribery allegations he levelled against the EFCC.
"Going by this background , it is within the jurisdiction of the EFCC to arrest him for questioning considering that he was heading out of the country. However, what the EFCC should not do is take the law into their hands and hold him beyond the statutory hours , if they feel they have a case against him, they should charge him to court ."

apeaiiterngu:
"You contributed for his arrest why did you video him and post that you were on the same flight with her. You’re chasing clouts and again what prove do you have that she served his jail term in the prison. Were you there with him? Which facility male or female??"
vheedoh:
"What about the arrest of VDM yesterday after a public apology? Can you see the member of the senate who assaulted the Uber guy? After the rubbish apology, he’s now walking freely. @isaacfayoseoriginal_ I’m confused about what you stand for! If I may ask, what do you stand for?"
segalink:
"Distinguished sir, you most probably didn’t follow up on his matter. He wouldn’t claim to have been cleared as you have alleged. The authorities haven’t done anything wrong here. The law applies to us all and no one is above it. Not even me. Unless of course, you have immunity as a serving Governor or President which doesn’t last forever."
ogsneakers24:
"Why do you have to post him the same minute you took the picture.. Alakoba."
chidinma_lyd:
"Na you be the weapon fashioned against Bob."
poshest_hope:
"Cho Cho Cho. Na you put that pikin for trouble."
