President Muhammadu Buhari on Tuesday met with some senators at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, over the face-off between the Senate and the Inspector-General of Police, Ibrahim Idris.

The Senate on Thursday raised a 10-man panel to meet with President Buhari over the allegation leveled against the IGP by Senate President Bukola Saraki.

Members of the senate delegation included former governors of Nasarawa, Gombe and Akwa Ibom states, Abdullahi Adamu, Danjuma Goje and Godswill Akpabio.

The Senior Special Assistant to the President on National Assembly matters (Senate), Ita Enang also accompanied the senators to the meeting with the President.

It would be recalled that the Senate had on May 9 passed vote of no confidence on the IGP, describing him as “enemy of democracy’’ over his failure to honour its invitations twice.

Senate President Bukola Saraki on Wednesday also accused the IGP of plotting to implicate him and Gov. Abdulfatah Ahmed of Kwara in a murder case involving some suspected cultists.
