Drama In Enugu House Of Assembly As Leader Orders The Arrest Of Accountant-General
There was slight drama in Enugu House
of Assembly this morning as the leader of the assembly; Sunday Ude- Okoye
ordered the State Commissioner of police to arrest the State accountant-General,
Paschal Okolie for failing to appear before the house on three good occasions.
The House leader was quoted to have said, Mr Paschal was giving flimsy excuses
such as being sick, just not to honour the house’s invitation and he has it on
good notes that, he Paschal is fine and has been attending to his duties. Below
is what he said while ordering the State Commissioner of police to take charge;
“We are all from Enugu State and
every time he pretends to be sick, but we keep getting information that he
attends to his duty.
“This is the third invitation to
him and there is no sign or reason why he is not here. As of today, he is in
Enugu State.
“Maybe as one of us said yesterday
that we have no powers, he feels that we have no powers indeed and he will
continue to fry us like `akara’ in the frying pan.
“So because of his continuous
failure and neglect of this honourable House, l therefore evoke the powers bestowed
on us to order the Commissioner of Police to issue a warrant of arrest on the
accountant-general,’’ he said
