In what will come across as a rather startling
development, one Kabir Muhammed Lawal, who
happens to be the Legislative Assistant to a
member of the House of Representatives,
Mustafa Saidu from Adamawa State, has been
caught burgling an office.

The man was on Friday, caught breaking into
the office of another lawmaker from Kano
State, Kabiru Idris, The PUNCH reports.

Lawal, who was apprehended with the aid of a
closed-circuit television camera, hails from Offa,
Kwara State. Saidu is a member of the Peoples
Democratic Party while Idris is a member of the
All Progressives Congress.

Our correspondent obtained a copy of the CCTV
footage showing Lawal allegedly opening a shelf
in the office as well as videos of his
interrogation by Idris and some sergeants-at-
arms.

According to eyewitnesses, Lawal had allegedly
paraded himself as a journalist in the course of
extorting money from unsuspecting politicians
and visitors from Federal Government Ministries,
Departments and Agencies.

Authorities of the National Assembly were still
interrogating Lawal as of 6.18pm on Friday
when this report was filed.

Idris, who is Chairman of the House Committee
on Civil Society Organisations and Donor
Agencies, in his brief comment on the incident,
stated that Lawal allegedly broke into his office
after using several keys, within 15 minutes of
exiting the office.

The lawmaker said, “He put off the light in my
office but my cameras were on and I could see
him. He used different keys. I could see from
the camera; he was struggling to open the door
and it was less than 15 minutes after I closed
from the office. Basically, he was monitoring my
movements. We have all the videos.”

Idris said he had contacted Lawal’s boss, who
was expected to arrive in the National Assembly
to see what his aide had allegedly done.

“It will be unfair to take any action or allow
anybody to take any action without the consent
of his principal. I have already invited him and
he is on his way. We will tell him what happened.

“The Chairman of the Press (House Committee on
Media and Public Affairs, Benjamin Kalu) is with
us; his office was also burgled a while ago. We
have all been burgled; we don’t know what is
happening.”

Idris later told journalists that the case had
been handed over to the National Assembly
management for further action.

Burglars had in May broken into Kalu’s office
and carted away cash and items.

Kalu had lamented the spate of insecurity in and
around the National Assembly Complex as
burglars broke into his office.

The House spokesman said members of the
National Assembly were no longer safe to carry
out their legislative duties and that he was
shocked to see that his office had been burgled.

When contacted, the Divisional Police Officer,
National Assembly Division, DSP Abdullahi Sambo,
said, “See me on Monday for that.”

Lawal’s boss could not be reached as of press
time on Friday as he did not pick up his mobile
phone when he was called several times.

In January 2019, the offices of three members
of the National Assembly were looted within a
week. The affected lawmakers included Senator
Oluremi Tinubu, representing Lagos West
Senatorial District; and Mr Muhammed Gausu
Boyi, representing Ringim/Taura Federal
Constituency, Jigawa State.
