Embattled Director-General of the National Council for Arts and Culture (NCAC), Olusegun Runsewe has cried out that some powerful forces are after him after he was sentenced to prison for contempt of court order made on December 15, 2017.
Recall that Olusegun Runswe had also had a clash with popular crossdresser Bobrisky a few months ago, declaring him a national disgrace and for which he claimed he received threats.
He has now revealed after his sentence on Thursday that he had refused to turn in the Art and Craft village property (Opposite Abuja Sheraton) valued at 9.8billion to the unmentioned forces and because of that, they want him out of office and in jail.
Hre further alleged that the property which became a security threat to Abuja residents before he resumed office, was turned into a drug den, a hold-bay, a rented house for hooligans and criminals and a depot for illegal arms and sundry criminal activities.

“So I wonder why, some people are bent on converting government property to a haven of inappropriate engagement; hence, the police have to close down the place. The Art and Craft village belongs to the Federal Republic Of Nigeria. It does not belong to me but to the Nigerian people, so I would be failing in my duties as a public officer and appointee of government if I cannot protect government property to which I was mandated to oversee“, he said to newsmen.Photos Credit: Getty
