The
Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, has been summoned by
members of the Nigerian Senate following a point of order on the return
of thuggery to Kano state.
Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso
The Nigerian Senate has mandated its committee on Police Affairs,
chaired by Senator Abu Ibrahim, to summon the Inspector General of
Police, Ibrahim Idris over Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso (APC, Kano).
According to DailyTrust, the summon followed a point of order by
Senator Isah Hamma Misau (APC,Bauchi) on the return of thuggery to Kano
state.
Kwankwaso had scheduled to visit Kano, but the Kano State Police Commissioner advised him against it.
Misau alleged that in the last three days people in Kano have been
armed with dangerous weapons, saying the Boko Haram crisis in Borno and
other parts of the Northeast started in a similar scenario.
But Senators Barau Jibrin and Kabir Gaya faulted the claim of
Misau. They said the feud between Kwankwaso and Governor Ganduje is a
family issue and that it should be treated as such.
Remarking, the Senate President, Bukola Saraki asked the IGP to
appear before the Police Affairs committee and provide security to
Kwankwaso to visit Kano.
