Police denies plot to arrest Senator Ekweremadu

The Nigeria Police Force has denied allegations of plans to arrest Deputy Senate President Ike Ekweremadu.

Force Assistant Spokesman CSP Abayomi Shogunle, on Sunday, July 5, a Senator wrote a petition to the IGP that the rules of the house was altered for Ekweremdu to emerged Deputy President of the Senate.

Shogunle said that after the preliminary investigations, the Force CID wrote to the Clerk of the National Assembly to arrange the time and place for police investigators to meet with some Senators for interrogations.

Meanwhile, the Nigeria Police Force also released on its Facebook page, a statement to clarify the matter.

It said:

“The Nigeria Police Force received a petition from a Senator alleging unauthorized substitution of Senate document, the matter was referred to Force CIID Abuja for investigation.

In line with the policy of the Police leadership of gathering evidence before invitation, a letter was sent to the Clerk of National Assembly to FACILITATE A MEETING of some principal Senate members/Clerk with Police investigating team headed by DIG FCIID at THEIR CONVENIENT TIME AND VENUE.

No plans to arrest Deputy Senate President as NPF have healthy respect for democratic values.”
