The three-man investigative committee set up by President Muhammadu Buhari to probe the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF, Babachir Lawal, and the Director-General of the National Intelligence Agency, NIA, Ayo Oke, will on Monday submit its report to the President.
According to the report by the Senate ad-hoc committee, the suspended SGF converted PINE into a money making enterprise, using the agency to award contracts to cronies whose firms did not pass the requirements set by law.
The current face-off between the Senate and the executive arm of government is anything but over, following the failure of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF, Babachir Lawal, to honour an invitation by the upper legislative chamber.
The refusal of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Babachir Lawal to resign from office and the reluctance of President Muhammadu Buhari to drop him has continued to generate reactions among Nigerians.
The Senate has received a letter from President Muhammadu Buhari, explaining why he did not act on the recommendations of the Senate on the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Babachir Lawal.
