Insecurity: Senate Grills IGP Behind Closed Doors

The Inspector-General of Police, Mr Adamu Mohammed, is being quizzed by Senators over the high rate of insecurity across Nigeria.

The police chief was last week summoned by the upper chamber of the National Assembly to brief senators over the rising cases of killings, kidnappings and banditry in parts of the country.

The police boss was led into the chamber after the Senate plenary resumed for the day’s session.

Adamu was summoned following the killing of Faye Mooney, an official of Mercy Corps Nigeria, and Matthew Oguche, her partner, at the Kajuru Castle in Kaduna state.

The duo died after they were caught in a cross fire between police officers guarding the castle and suspected bandits.
