    The President of the Senate Dr Bukola Saraki is set to meet
    President Muhammadu Buhari to relay to him an alleged plot
    by the Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris to implicate
    him (Saraki).
    The President of the Senate is to lead the leadership of the
    upper legislative chamber to meet with President Buhari over
    the alleged plot which Saraki disclosed on the floor of the
    Senate on Wednesday.
    Saraki had raised the alarm on the floor of the Senate over a
    plot by the IGP to implicate him using ‘coerced’ cultists.
    “My Distinguished colleagues, there is an issue which I need
    to bring to your attention very urgently. Last night, my State
    Governor, Dr. Abdulfatai Ahmed revealed to me an information
    at his disposal that a group of suspects who had been in
    police cells for several weeks for cultism and whose
    investigation had been concluded with prosecution about to
    commence under the State law based on the advice of the
    Director of Public Prosecution (DPP) and the Ministry of
    Justice were ordered to be transferred to Abuja this morning.
    “ According to the information available to the Governor, the
    Inspector General of Police, Mr. Idris Ibrahim directed the
    Commissioner of Police in Kwara State to immediately
    transfer the men to the Force Headquarters.
    “The plan, as the Governor was made to understand is that,
    under duress, the suspects would be made to alter the
    statements they already made in Ilorin. They will then be
    made to implicate the Kwara State Government, and in
    particular, myself, in their new statement.
    “This plot is part of the strategy by the IGP Idris to settle
    scores over the declaration by this honourable Chamber that
    he is not qualified and competent to hold any public office,
    within and outside the country and that he is an enemy of
    Nigerian democracy based on his usual disrespectful conduct
    towards lawful authorities.
    “”In my own view, this plot is an act of desperation,
    blackmail, intimidation, abuse of office and crude tactics
    aimed at turning our country into a Police State where top
    officials cannot be made to obey the law, follow due process
    and subject themselves to constituted authorities.
    “I want to bring this dangerous development to the attention
    of all of you my colleagues, the entire country and the
    international community so that you can be aware of the level
    of impunity in our country and the danger it constitute to our
    democracy,” the President of the Senate said.
    Saraki explained that he was bringing the issue to the
    attention of his colleagues to let them know the gravity of
    the situation.
    “I know the gravity of the issue that is why I am bringing it
    to your attention and to continue to let our colleagues and
    the world know presently the danger we are going with and
    the levels of the rascality that is going on with some of these
    actions.
    “I have brought it to your attention and we must continue to
    play our own role in doing what we believe in the course of
    our duty.
    “It is very unfortunate but that it the information I have as of
    now,” the President of the Senate said.
    The Senate resolved that the Senate President should lead a
    delegation to relay the concerns raised on the floor by Saraki.
    The delegation would consist of the Senate President, the
    Senate Leader, Senator Ahmad Lawan; the Chief Whip,
    Senator Olusola Adeyeye; and the Minority Leader, Senator
    Godswill Akpabio.
    Other members of the delegation would included Senator
    Danjuma Goje, Senator Sam Anyanwu, Senator Aliyu
    Wammako, Senator Fatima Raji Rasaki, and Senator Oluremi
    Tinubu.
