Breaking: Police Arrests Senator Omo-Agege

The Nigeria Police Wednesday afternoon arrested Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, at the National Assembly premises. He was immediately taken away in a black hilux van.

Omo-Agege’s arrest is connected to allegations that he masterminded the theft of the mace of the Senate earlier on Wednesday.

Deputy Senate President Ike Eklweremadu had earlier stated that the manner in which hoodlums stormed the Red Chamber to take away the symbol authority of the upper legislative arm amounted to treason and vowed that those behind it would be dealt with.

Also the spokesperson of the Senate, Sabi Abdullahi, accused Omo-Agege of leading hoodlums to the floor of the senate to disrupt proceedings and take away the mace
