The Police on Monday backtracked over its resolve to invite president of the senate, Bukola Saraki, for questioning over his alleged involvement in Offa robbery.
Mr Saraki, in a tweet on Monday afternoon, revealed that he instructed his ADC to get the invitation letter from the Police Headquarters in Abuja.
He tweeted; “I have just informed my ADC to get the letter of invitation from @PoliceNG in respect of the allegations raised yesterday — so that I can immediately honour the alleged invitation”.
But in another tweet later, the president of the senate said the police had recanted their position, demanding explanation instead of appearance from him.
“Following my earlier tweet, I have received the letter from @PoliceNG. They are no longer asking me to appear at any station, but to respond in writing to the allegations within 48 hours — which I plan to do,” Mr Saraki said.
