Nigeria’s President, Muhammadu
Buhari has met behind closed doors with the Inspector-General of Police,
Ibrahim Idris, at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
The agenda of the meeting was not
made public. The meeting was, however, held a few hours after news broke that
security operatives laid a siege on the residences of the President of the
Senate, Bukola Saraki; and his deputy, Ike Ekweremadu, Punch reports.
The meeting also came a day after
the police high command again invited Saraki for questioning over the recent Offa
robbery.
The police had asked Saraki to
report on Tuesday at 8am but he had not complied with the directive as of the
time the police boss was meeting Buhari.
His failure to honour the
invitation forced the police to issue a statement threatening to use all legal
means to get him.
Idris did not speak with State
House correspondents after the meeting he had with Buhari.
The Presidency has yet to issue a
statement on the meeting at the time of filing this report.
According to Punch, it is however
believed that Idris would have seized the opportunity of the meeting to brief
the President on the developments.
