The Inspector General, Ibrahim Idris, has kicked against the closure of the Police Division in the National Assembly allegedly by the Senate.
Idris described the closure as “illegal”.

The Senate had been engaged in a face-off with Idris following a protracted fight between Senator Isa Misau and the IG.

However, the IG was also accused of removing the Officer-in-Charge of the Division without recourse to the leadership of the National Assembly.

These, it is believed, led to the closure of the Police Division in the National Assembly on September 12, 2017.

Idris, in a letter dated September 19, 2017, entitled: “Re: Sealing and closure of Nigeria Police National Assembly Division,” said the action was tantamount to a criminal act, especially when it was not ordered by any competent court.

The letter, which was personally endorsed by the IG himself, was addressed to some high-ranking persons at the National Assembly.

The protest letter reads in part: “I am constrained to bring to the attention of the Chairman, National Assembly and President of the Senate, the sealing and closure of the Nigeria Police National Assembly Division since September 12, 2017 till date (seven days now).

“Preliminary inquiries initiated upon getting this report revealed that one Ibrahim Ndako – Sargent-At-Arms of the National Assembly and personnel on the said date evicted the duly posted Divisional Police Officer and staff from the police station in full glare reportedly on the instruction(s) of one M.A. Omolori – Clerk of the National Assembly and sealed the office(s).

“Pursuant to this, on September 17, 2017, I directed the Commissioner of Police, FCT Command in whose jurisdiction the National Assembly is domiciled to meet with the said M.A. Omolori – Clerk of the National Assembly and ascertain the circumstances that led to what is manifestly and unlawful action. Regrettably, this entreaty was bluntly rebuffed.

“No reason(s) prior to and after the closure has been formally conveyed to any formation of the Nigeria Police or to the Office of the Inspector General of Police in this regard even as at the time of this correspondence…

“Furthermore, it is also necessary to indicate that this action of evicting public servant in the course of performing their lawful duties and sealing an office domiciled in a public building complex devoid of an express order from competent court is tantamount to a criminal act punishable under the Criminal Code and Panel Code of Laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

“The implications of this action in the light of current agitations now emanating from different parts of the country negatively impact directly on the security of the National Assembly Complex, the numerous members and staff of parliament domiciled therein as well as members of the general public; an outcome, which may no doubt escalate to a serious challenge to National Security.

“Consequently, I have initiated a formal investigation to determine the background and circumstances leading to this unfortunate and unprecedented development; the outcome of which will be conveyed to your distinguished office for information accordingly.

“While appreciating your tremendous support towards the successes of the Nigeria Police Force, accept as always the assurances of my highest regards, please.”

The IGP is not wealthy enough to ow that nobody can evict the Police from the NA.

It is only the Police that can decide to leave when they are convinced that there is a court order.

The policemen who left the office ought to be suspended for gross incompetence and negligence of duty.

They cowardly and foolishly surrendered to lawlessness when their job is to maintain the law and order.
They jeopardised national security on the orders of a so called sergeant at arms who has no such authority.

The sergeant at arms only has the duty of maintaining law and order within the hallow chambers. Nonsense

I am ashamed of the police force.

If you won't preach of the Resurrection of CHRIST JESUS from dead, that doesn't make it untrue. The most important thing is, the sacrifice of the beloved Son of God Almighty have been perfected and those who believe have been justified by the blood of Jesus Christ in the eyes of true Light


And those who believe not shall be condemned as ordained, man's opinion doesn't count. Don't tell me I did not warn you on this day. God Almighty help you to believe and proclaim that you are justified by the resurrection of Christ Jesus from the dead. Amen

Something is wrong here.
I believe this Police force is a joke.
How would you ever be sealed out of office by people you can arrest and lock up.
Once again, the law is for the poor.
