TRENDING AIG Mbu appears before rights commission…>>

-

Assistant InspectorG­eneral of Police, Joseph Mbu on Wednesday appeared at the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) in Abuja to defend an allegation against him of torture, threat to life and abuse of human rights.

Mbu was reported to finally appear after previous summons as the Executive Secretary, NHRC, Prof. Bem Angwe told journalist­s that Mbu honoured the last invitation.

But Mbu said his refusal to turn up before the commission was not deliberate as the previous invitation­s sent to him arrived while he was out of the country on vacation.

This has however generated a buzz on the social media.

One Comrade Nura Haliru posted on Facebook: “@Oga Mbu, I hope you can now defend your actions such as tear-gassing a state EXCO meeting in session and blocking a serving Governor from entering Government House?

Another netizen who identified himself as Efcc Zauro Mujitaba commented: “Hmmm nothing lasts forever AIG Mbu at NHRC office!”

And Saidu Bappah said “Please take him to court...he’s a real human rights violator.”

In a different tone, netizen Mark Jude psoted: “APC wahala.”

While Shuaibu Umar suggested Mbu should have been fired. “I don’t know why he didn’t follow suit as Marilyn Ogar before facing his charges?” read his post.
