Reps summon IGP over 57,000 missing live ammunition

Members of the House of Representatives Committee on Public Accounts yesterday expressed anger over 57,000 (5.6mm) live ammunition sold by three officers of the police command’s headquarters in Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State, in 2008.


The committee said it was interested in who the ammunition were sold to and those who collaborated in selling them.

The committee, headed by Solomon Adeola, invited Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Mohammed Abubakar to explain how the internal control mechanism of the police permitted such act.

Adeola said the committee will investigate the incident, adding that it is such acts that cause the proliferation of firearms in the country with its attendant security implications.
