The prospects of a seamless election of a new set of national officers for the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, are being beclouded by fresh intrigues over varied opinions by the governors and the outgoing leadership.

THE Senate has summoned the Inspector General of Police, IGP, Ibrahim Idris, to appear before it at plenary and brief it on the ordeal of the Chairman, Committee on the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Senator Dino Melaye ( APC Kogi West ) in the hands of the Nigeria Police on alleged illegal possession of ammunition.

Ahead of the 2019 general elections, there are palpable fears in the camp of the opposition that the Federal Government will re-enact the Obasanjo formula of using its security and anti-graft agencies, to block the accounts of hostile state governments and frustrate their ability to support opposition to Buhari’s re-election bid

In an unusual daring move, the House of Representatives at Wednesday plenary summoned President Muhammadu Buhari to make explanations on why the wave of insecurity has persisted across the nation.

THE operatives of the Nigeria Police have moved Senator Dino Melaye out of hospital in an ambulance marked NPF 221 D.
