Senator Omo-Agege and Ali Ndume appear before investigative panel over 'Mace' theft

Yesterday Senator Ovie Omo-Agege honoured the invitation of an ad-hoc committee drafted to investigate the incident of the chamber invasion.

The committee was set up by the Senate and the House of Representatives. Ali Ndume, another senator invited by the committee, was also in attendance on Tuesday afternoon.

According to reports, Omo-Agege was on sit as at 12:16 a.m. when the committee commenced the sitting while Ndume walked in at about 12:20 a.m. The senators are expected to answer questions on their roles in the invasion of the Senate chamber last month.

The Senate in April suspended Mr Omo-Agege for accusing his colleagues of working against President Muhammadu Buhari’s re-election plans in 2019. The senator made the accusation after his colleagues adopted the amendment to section 25 of Electoral Act outlining a change in the sequence of elections.

A week after the suspension, hoodlums invaded the Senate carting away the mace, the Senate’s symbol of authority. The mace was later recovered by the police. The hoodlums are believed to have been led by Mr Omo-Agege, who has however, denied any wrongdoing.

The committee in its first sitting invited the two senators after police witnesses mentioned them as culpable in the invasion and subsequent mace theft.

The wife of the deceased, Mrs. Maryrose Ikwunyelu narrated the incident that led to her husband’s sudden demise. She said: I was in front of my shop playing ludo game with one nurse Rebecca when Ifeanyi, who happens to be my husband’s brother, joined us. He requested to be allowed to participate in the game but I declined on the ground that he often caused trouble each time he participated and lost out in the game. Sometimes, it would lead to wanton destruction of some items in my shop and the compound. It was on that note that he took offen...
