The Principal Administrative Officer, Police Service Commission (PSC), Aaron Kaase, has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to sack the Chairman of the Commission, Mike Okiro, over alleged N500 million scam.
Kaase in an open letter to Buhari said following his letters accusing Okiro of fraud and gross corruption, the PSC chairman has unleashed the police on him and his colleague, Raymond Amase.
He said: “On Tuesday and Thursday last week, we were guests of the police at the office of the Inspector-General of Police in Garki, Abuja, based on complaint by Okiro accusing us of allegedly leaking official information and defamation of his character”.
“And what is defamation when there is an official and signed petition against you before the anti-graft agencies?” he queried.
“This is also happening in fragrant disobedience to a court motion on notice in a N500 million suit against Okiro, Suprem Ibitomi and IGP, before Justice O.O. Goodluck of the FCT High Court, Abuja, restraining the respondents from taking any action until the determination of the suit slated for mention on June 30, 2015.”
The official recalled that,” Okiro convened a plenary of the PSC on May 27, 2015 and took a unilateral decision to suspend me from office, backdating the decision to May 21, this year, which was the same day court motion on notice was served on him and the commission.
Kaase said, “I am still amazed as to whether the back-dated decision was forged by one Mr. Ibe, Director Administration and Finance of PSC, or whether it was actually a decision of respected members of the Commission including a retired Supreme Court judge”.
