 The House of Representatives has set up an HADOC committee to investigate the missing 178,459 firearms and ammunition from the Armory of the Nigerian Police Force. Details in this report presented from our studio. The motion was sponsored by the Deputy Minority Leader of the House Honourable Tobi Okechuku on the matter of urgent national importance. Honourable Okechuku, while relying on the Auditor-General of the Federation's report of 2019, observed that a total of 100 and 78,459 arms disappeared from the Armory of the Nigerian Police in 2018. He also gave a breakdown of the missing firearms and ammunition, which includes 88,078 AK-47 rifles, 3,907 assorted rifles and pistols across different police formations and others which could not be accounted for. Instead of queuing behind the Auditor-General's report of 2017, 2018, 2018, this should be brought up to speed. There were, however, suggestions on who should carry out the investigation, a standing committee or an already constituted HADOC committee, which the House constituted to investigate a similar assignment. In terms of the motion that we passed before the exit of the House, the committee constituted to look into the issue of those who are releasing criminals. And this is a very much related motion to it. I would have said in line with our rules to allow the police committee to do what will happen, the application of function. Police, on their list, this issue of now arms and ammunition disappeared and ended up where they may be with armed robbers is part of it. The motion was adopted unanimously when put to vote by Speaker Femi Bajabiamila and was referred to the Standing Committee for further legislative action. Hello, hope you enjoyed the news.
