The founder of DAAR Communications Limited, owners of AIT Radio and Television, Chief Raymond Dokpesi has been released by the United Kingdom police after he was detained for hours.
Dokpesi was arrested on Sunday at Heathrow Airport in London.
He was said to have arrived London from Germany after a trip from Frankfurt on a Lufthansa airlines flight that arrived in the UK. He left Abuja via Frankfurt to London where he was billed to have a meeting with Atiku Abubakar, the Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
Dokpesi arrived via Frankfurt from Abuja on a Lufthansa airlines flight and was invited off the plane, before other passengers were disembarked, management of DAAR Communications explained in a statement.
“Dokpesi was delayed at the airport for some hours before his passport was stamped and he was cleared by British Immigration officials for entry into the country.
“His visit to the United Kingdom is not unconnected to the invitation of the Peoples Democratic Party presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar by the British government to share perspectives on issues around the 2023 presidential elections.
“The media founder is the Deputy Director-General, Technical & Systems of the PDP Presidential Campaign Council.
“Chief Dokpesi wishes to thank all for their outpour of love, prayers and support following the news of the incident and to reassure that he is hale and hearty,” the statement said.
