The Federal Government, on Tuesday, through the Office of the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, filed two separate sets of charges against the Senator representing Bauchi Central Senatorial District, Isah Misau.
In the case filed before the FCT High Court, the prosecution preferred against Misau, a retired Deputy Superintendent of Police, five counts of making “injurious falsehood” against Idris and the Nigeria Police Force based on various allegations of corruption made by the senator against the IGP in the media.
Part of the allegations by Misau, considered injurious to the IGP and the Nigeria Police Force, was that police officers allegedly paid as much as N2.5m to get special promotion and posting through the Police Service Commission.
The federal lawmaker also accused the IGP of allegedly diverting money meant for the purchase of Armoured Personnel Carriers, Sport Utility Vehicles and other exotic cars. Misau was also said to have falsely accused the IGP of making almost half of the mobile commanders in the country the people of his Nupe extraction.

ReplyDeleteBut the sen said the truth, even the police officers knows what he is saying but fear won't let them talk.
ReplyDeleteThe federal government are just biased focus on the message and take action instead of the messenger.
ReplyDeleteAbuse of power is corruption. If IGP thinks Misau accused him wrongly, he should sue Misau himself. It is none of the misguided Federal Government's business. Corrupt dullardeens.
