The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, has written to the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, and the Director-General, Department of State Services, Yusuf Bichi, on an alleged plot by the government of Bauchi State to indicate him in a “criminal conspiracy”.

“I write to inform the Inspector-General of Police that I am in receipt of credible intelligence about an ongoing plot by Bauchi State Government to implicate me in a criminal conspiracy,” Dogara’s Special Adviser on Media and Public Affairs Turaki Hassan said in a statement on Thursday.

“The Bauchi State Government has procured hundreds of motorbikes and cars which are being branded in the Government House Bauchi with my pictures and logo of my party, the Peoples Democratic Party and my name inscribed,” he added.

Dogara claimed to have “credible information of an ongoing plot to plant false evidence in form of branded motorbikes and cars bearing the logo of his party and his pictures, which will be used to commit crimes and implicate him in criminal activities.”

The fourth term lawmaker urged the security agencies to be on a watch out for the criminal plot.

“I am, by this letter, putting the police and other security agencies on notice so as to be on the watch out for these criminal elements intended to be deployed by Bauchi State Government,” Hassan said.
