The House committee, chaired by Yusuf Gagdi, had directed the Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Olatunji Disu, on Monday, July 27, to produce Adeyemi at Wednesday’s investigative hearing after several government institutions testified on the operations of the purported council.
“The Nigeria Police Force may not be able to produce the suspect as requested in view of the subsisting warrant.
Responding, the committee chairman accepted the explanation and said the committee would immediately commence the process of obtaining the required court order.
He added that the panel would notify the Office of the Inspector-General of Police once the order is secured.
BackstoryThe ICIR reported on Monday that the House committee ordered the police to produce Adeyemi within 48 hours over alleged widespread use of forged government documents to legitimise the activities of the purported council.
