Adeyanju, while addressing journalists in Abuja, urged President Muhammadu Buhari to use his good offices to order the arrest and probe of the IGP as demonstration of his resolve to fight graft in the public sector. The activist said the allegations should not be swept under the carpet but should be thoroughly investigated by operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and those found culpable prosecuted as part of measures to rid the Nigeria Police Force of corruption. His Words: “Just yesterday we watched on Channels TV how a serving Senator from Bauchi alleged that the Inspector-General of Police got N120bn as bribe from oil companies and banks. “Instead of the IGP to make efforts to clear his name, the Police hierarchy claimed that the APC Senator who alleged that the IGP collected N120bn was a desserter; stressing that he left the Police Force in 2010 and did not resign properly. “The question remains; did the IGP collect this money or not? “We are happy that Buhari is back. Let him fight this corruption. We want him to arrest all the thieves who have been looting public treasury and defrauding key players in the private sector. “This IGP should be on suspension by now, if we are serious about corruption. Buhari should arrest and prosecute the IGP and his accomplices “We are talking about N120bn Naira not N120m and the explanation for that is that this ex-police officer did not retire properly. This man retired since 2010 but all of a sudden, in 2017, the Nigeria Police realized he did not resign properly. “If it were a PDP Senator that was alleging that the IGP took bribes, they might say it corruption that is fighting back. But corruption is not fighting back in this case because it is the same APC people that are making the allegations. “We want the EFCC to investigate these issues. We want the EFCC to look into this matter.” To Receive Free News Updates, Add To Your WhatsApp: 08033857245; For Adverts Enquiries, Call 08083609209, To Publish Your Articles Or News Stories, Email editor@skytrendnews.com.
