The U.K. police have released Chief Raymond Dokpesi, the founder of DAAR Communications Limited owners of AIT Radio and Television.
Dokpesi was arrested at Heathrow Airport in London on Sunday after he was delayed for some hours by British Immigration on his arrival from Frankfurt, Vanguard reports.
However, in a statement on Monday, AIT management said: “Dokpesi arrived via Frankfurt from Abuja on a Lufthansa airlines flight and was invited off the plane before other passengers were disembarked.
“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.”
