Reps Committee Directs IGP to Produce Disputed PFIPC Director General Within 48 Hours The House of Representatives Public Petitions and Fundamental Institutions and Public Interest Committee PFIPC has directed the Inspector-General of Police IGP to produce Mr. Adeyemi Martin before the committee within 48 hours as part of its ongoing investigation into a disputed appointment involving the commission. The committee ordered that Mr. Martin appear before it on July 29, 2026, at 12 noon, to respond to issues connected with the investigation. The directive followed proceedings by the committee as it continued its inquiry into the controversy surrounding the position of Director-General of the PFIPC. Lawmakers said the appearance of the concerned parties was necessary to establish facts and ensure transparency in the process. The committee’s action places responsibility on the police authorities to ensure Mr. Martin’s attendance at the scheduled hearing. The PFIPC has continued to examine the matter as part of its constitutional responsibility to investigate petitions and issues of public interest brought before the National Assembly.

Further developments are expected as the committee proceeds with its investigation and receives submissions from relevant stakeholders.
