Pan Niger-Delta Forum, PANDEF, the umbrella body of monarchs, leaders and stakeholders in the South-South geo-political zone, yesterday, urged President Muhammadu Buhari to urgently call the Inspector-General of Police, IGP Ibrahim Idris, to order over his alleged harassment of the Senate President, Dr Bukola Saraki and humiliation of National Assembly members.
The police had on Sunday invited Saraki with respect to the confession of the five principal suspects in the April 5 Offa robbery incident in the state.
The police said the confession of the suspects indicted the Senate President.
Reacting in a statement by its secretary, Dr. Alfred Mulade, the forum said: “We at PANDEF call on President Buhari to immediately call the Inspector General of Police, Mr Idris to order. Any service chief who indulges in partisanship is not in the best of this country.
“The leadership of PANDEF, condemns in strong terms, the undue harassment and withdrawal of security from the Senate President, Dr Saraki and the Speaker, Mr Yakubu Dogara, who occupy the number three and four positions in this country.”
