Abandoned reports: National Assembly’s long list of endless probes, loud hearings, dead results The Punch

SUNDAY ABORISADE and
LEKE BAIYEWU examine endless probes by both chambers of the National Assembly and observe that the investigations have produced few or no effects
Consecutively, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, asked all ad hoc committees of the House to lay their reports by the end of April 2021. He made the announcement on April 20; reminded the concerned committees again on April 21.
Indeed, many probes have been pending – or even abandoned – by the various panels given the tasks. Yet, hardly does the House sit without resolving to carry out one investigation or the other. It is a similar case in the Senate.

The acting Inspector-General of Police, Usman Alkali Baba, on Wednesday, has told the leadership of the House of Representatives that the Nigeria Police Force lacks adequate resources to face the emerging security challenges in the country.
Baba urged the House to create a special fund for police operations which will allow the security outfit to respond to emergency needs.
During the meeting, Gbajabiamila told the IGP the various reasons why Nigerians don’t respect police officers on the street, stating that beyond allocating more funds and recruiting more personnel, men of the Nigeria Police Force need a psychological approach to their duties.
The successes, pitfalls of IGP Adamu Mohammed

On January 15, 2019, IGP Adamu Mohammed assumed office as the 20th indigenous Inspector-General of Police, replacing Ibrahim Kpotum Idris.
He met a Force that had been under pressure from an avalanche of challenges beyond its own capabilities.
To address these challenges among which were insecurity in all regions of the country and human rights abuses by security personnel, he hit the ground running by introducing policies and strategies aimed at repositioning the force on a right path.
