Following shocking revelations made against the President’s wife, Mrs. Aisha Buhari, Senator Isah Hamma Misau, yesterday disclosed that the Inspector-General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, was behind the leaked documents which exposed the President’s wife, and not him.
The disclosure which was contained in a statement issued yesterday by the senator, said his comment on the approval of two jeeps by the IGP for the president’s wife was in reference to court documents filed in the charge against him by the IGP and the Attorney-General of the Federation.
He accused the IGP of blackmailing the president’s wife and other high-ranking personalities by deliberately and unethically exposing their correspondences.
Misau in the statement said: “It was indeed a shock to me, as am sure it is to other Nigerians to see such private and confidential documents with all the minutes of the President and other top government officials carelessly displayed in the public by the Inspector General of Police in manifest breach of official secrecy.
“The motive for displaying these documents is no doubt suspicious given that they have little or no bearing on the matter of inappropriate practices within the Police.
“My submission before the Senate Ad hoc Committee was simply to call the attention of members as well as the general public to how the IGP is unethically dropping names through filing of secret documents so as to rope these top ranking innocent personalities into the case.
“The IGP is the one who submitted the official documents mentioning the names of respected personalities, not me. I believe I need to make this clarification.”
