Founder DAAR Communications Plc,  Chief Raymond Anthony Aleogho Dokpesi , has been released by UK Police after he was delayed on arrival at the London Heathrow airport on Sunday.

A statement by Chief Dokpesi said he was delayed at the airport for some hours before his passport was stamped and was cleared by British Immigration officials for entry into the country.

“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,” he said.

According to him, his visit to the United Kingdom was in connection with the invitation of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar by the British government to share perspectives on issues around the 2023 presidential elections. 

Dokpesi is the Deputy Director-General, Technical & Systems of the PDP Presidential Campaign Council.

He thanked all for their outpour of love, prayers and support following the news of the incident and to reassure that he was hale and hearty.
