Aftermath Of NASS Fracas: Sambo Summons IG by OKDnigeria: 3:34pm On Nov 21, 2014
Vice President Namadi Sambo on Friday
summoned the Inspector-General of Police, Mr.
Suleiman Abba, to the Presidential Villa, Abuja
over the Thursday invasion of the National
Assembly by policemen.
A fracas broke out at the National Assembly while
security operatives were preventing the Speaker,
Aminu Tambuwal, and some of his loyalists from
entering the premises.
Sambo was said to have summoned Abba to
explain the role of his men in the fracas after he
(Sambo) had listened to the version of the
incident as narrated by the principal officers of the
House of Representatives elected on the platform
of the Peoples Democratic Party.
The police boss was accompanied to the meeting
with the Vice President by some senior police
officers.
When State House correspondents asked him after
the meeting if the order to invade the National
Assembly came from him, he said ongoing
investigation would reveal the roles played by
each person in the fracas.
“Who did what and who didn’t do what will be
disclosed to you later. You know we work with
investigations, investigations are going on and the
press officer will address you,” he simply said as
he made his way out of the Vice President’s wing
of the Presidential Villa.
When further asked if he was insinuating that he
was not aware of the operation before the fracas
broke out, Abba insisted, “I still repeat: who did
what, who didn’t do what, you will hear later. It is
subject to investigations. We just don’t talk
anyhow.”
As he made his way to his car, the police boss
managed to grant another short interview in
Hausa, claiming that he had never seen the
actions displayed by some lawmakers on
Thursday anywhere in the world.
He alleged that while somebody was pushing a
policeman from a car, another person was seen
removing roadblocks mounted by the police.
“Somebody was removing road blocks mounted
by police. We have never seen this kind of thing
in the whole world. So, we will talk to you later.
Just wait, our findings will reveal,” he added.
Sambo had on Thursday evening met with PDP
principal officers in the House of Representatives
because President Goodluck Jonathan had
travelled to London to attend a meeting of
Nigeria’s Honorary International Investment
Council.
The lawmakers were led to the meeting by the
Deputy Speaker, Emeka Ihedioha.
Other lawmakers in the delegation were the House
Leader, Mulikat Adeola-Akande; the Deputy House
Leader, Leo Ogor; and the Chief Whip, Ishaku
Bawa.

I thought Doyin Okupe said the IG was responsible for the policemen being stationed there acting on a security information which he said stated that some hoodlums/miscreants were planning to disrupt activities at the Assembly undecided

Well,lets wait for the outcome...
