The Senate on Wednesday asked the Inspector General of Police to force the Registrar-General of the Corporate Affairs Commission, Hussaini Ishaq Magaji, to appear before its Committee on Finance within 24 hours.
Channels TV reports that Ishaq Magaji had earlier been found wanting by the committee during the MTEF/FP defence, but he shunned the committee’s summons for the third time.

According to the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Finance, Senator Sani Musa, Magaji’s failure to honour the Senate committee’s invitation is disrespectful.
Musa, while invoking section 89, sub-section 2, during the budget defence session ordered the RG’s appearance over discrepancies detected in the revenue generation and expenditure by the Corporate Affairs Commission.
He stated, “You have your bookkeepers; you have your records and we asked you to go and tidy up and report back, but you never did.”
Meanwhile, the committee unanimously resolved that the Inspector General of Police should ensure his appearance before the finance committee unfailingly on Thursday.
