The invitation letter, dated June 6, and signed by Assistant Inspector-General of Police, James Caulcrick, directed the Deputy President of the Senate, Ike Ekweremadu and immediate past President of the Senate, David Mark to appear.
Also invited are the former Senate Leader, Victor Ndoma-Egba; former Clerk of the National Assembly, Salisu Maikasuwa; Chairman, Senate Committee on Rules and Business, Ita Enang; and the committee clerk, Dr. Nma Ogozy.
The letter, entitled “first reminder”, made reference to an earlier one written by the Police to the officers on July 1, 2015 on the same subject matter.
The police letter read:
“I refer to the Deputy Inspector-General of Police’s letter No. CR:3000/X/FHQ/ABJ/VOL. 186/98 dated 1st July, 2015 requesting the under-listed officials of the seventh Senate to report to the Force CIID for the purpose of conducting investigation on the above subject matter: Senate President, Deputy Senate President, Majority Leader of the Senate, Clerk of the National Assembly, Clerk of the Senate, Chairman, Business and Rules; Secretary, Business and Rules.
“As at the time of writing this letter, none of the officials in the above seventh Senate list honoured the invitation to respond to the allegations, except the clerks of the National Assembly and the Senate.
“Consequent upon the above, you are kindly requested to inform the listed officials yet to respond to report to the Deputy Inspector General of Police, Force Criminal Intelligence and Investigation Department on 9th June, 2016 for the purpose of further investigation on the matter.”
The Senate rules were forged to alter the pattern of electing presiding officers at the inauguration of the 8 Senate on June 9, 2015, all in a bid to make Bukola Saraki and Ekweremadu presiding officers.
