Senate receives report on clash between EFCC, DSS

The senate on Wednesday received the report of its ad hoc committee investigating the clash between officers of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and the National Intelligence Agency (NIA).

Francis Alimikhena, chairman of the committee, laid the report before the lawmakers during plenary.

Fatima Rasaki seconded the motion for the report to be laid.

The senate had in November 2017, set up the committee to investigate the showdown between officials of the agencies in Abuja.

The face-off was said to have stemmed from EFCC’s attempt to arrest Ita Ekpeyong, former director-general of DSS, and Ayodele Oke, one-time head of NIA.

Alimikhena told NAN that the report had been laid and was awaiting the day for the consideration of the report before he could make any comment.
