The Senate has reacted to the
charges filed against Senator representing Bauchi Central in the National
Assembly, Hamman Isah Misau, bordering on alleged forgery.
The Chairman of the Senate
Committee on Ethics, Privileges and Public Petitions, Sam Anyanwu, told newsmen
that irrespective of the charges against Misau, it will continue with the
investigation of the allegations leveled against the Inspector-General of
Police, Ibrahim Idris, by Misau.
When Anyanwu was asked by
journalists yesterday if his committee would go ahead with the investigation,
as the AGF had filed a suit against Misau on behalf of the IGP, his reply was:
“the committee or the Senate is not a party to the suit.”
The Senate had on October 4, 2017
resolved to probe into Misau’s allegations bordering on corruption and
misconduct against Idris.
The Senate President, Bukola
Saraki, also mandated the investigation into the circumstances surrounding
Misau’s disengagement from the Nigeria Police. It could be recalled that Idris
had alleged that Misau was a deserter.
The two reports were to be
presented to the Senate in two weeks.
