Abuja.
REQUEST TO INVESTIGATE
THE INTIMIDATION, HARASSMENT, THREATS AND OTHER CRIMINAL ACTIVITIES OF THE TRIO
OF SAM MELAYE, BARR. C.J. OSMAN AND HON. MAHMUD ABDULKADIR IN THE LEADERSHIP
CRISES OF NASSLAF
We write to draw your attention to the
crises brewing in National Assembly and being stoked by Messrs SAM MELAYE, HON.
MAHMUD ABDULKADIR, BARR. C.J OSMAN and some other actors.
We are constrained to make this appeal
to you because Mr. Sam Melaye is leveraging on his brother, Senator Dino
Melaye’s position as Chairman, Senate Committee on the Federal Capital
Territory to use the NASS Division and FCT Police Command and other security
agencies to intimidate, harass, threaten and arrest our duly elected Chairman
and members of his executive as well as other aides. We are afraid that there may be serious break
down of law and order in the National Assembly precinct if not addressed by
your good offices.
We are a social political Forum that
relates based on our job definition of being Legislative Aides to Legislators
and we meet for peer review and sundry social, political and economic
interest. We were at no time created by
the management of National Assembly.
We have hitherto conducted our
elections during the 6th and 7th sessions of the National
Assembly without rancour and in accordance with our Constitution. We only became due-paying Forum in the 7th
Assembly and as such, we were able to open bank account and acquire some assets
for the Forum.
As it is the practice, we duly
informed management of our intention to conduct elections into our Forum for
the purposes of overseeing our affairs in the 8th National
Assembly. But to our utmost chagrin, our
immediate past Chairman, now a member representing LAPAI/AGAIE Federal
Constituency in the House of Representatives covertly connived with Barr. C.J
Osman, the Secretary, Directorate of Corporate Services of NASS and their few
stooge Legislative Aides went ahead to constitute a Caretaker Committee and
attempting to foist it on the Forum against our Constitution and corporate
will.
The said C.J. Osman is now inciting a
minute section of Legislative Aides to intimidate, harass and threaten our duly
elected Chairman and his executives, having ignored a written directive from
the National Assembly Service Commission to refrain from meddling in the
affairs of NASSLAF.
Also, security advisories and official
correspondences by all stakeholders were ignored by the trio as they went ahead
to declare Sam Melaye chairman of our Forum without being duly elected. This was even when we had to their knowledge
duly elected our leaders under the chairmanship of Com. Darlington Udeh.
Furthermore, Hon. Mahmud Abdulkadir
has yet to account for his tenure in the 7th National Assembly as
required by our Constitution and the spirit of accountability and probity. He has been fraudulently and criminally running
the bank account of our Forum in Enterprise Bank, National Assembly branch, (Account
No. 2200093769), having fraudulently removed the other former signatories and
their alert notices from the Bank mandate.
This is criminal as he had been sworn in as Honourable Member of the
House of Representatives since June 2015.
Moreso, our Constitution mandates him to handover all NASSLAF properties
to the Clerk of National Assembly at the end of the 7th Assembly in
June 2015 as he ceased to be an aide at the end of the 7th Assembly.
We are therefore appealing to you to
cause a proper investigation into our petition so as to fore-stall breach of
public peace in the precinct of the National Assembly and protect our Chairman
and members of his executive from further intimidation, harassment and threat by
the trio and their powerful sponsors.
While looking forward to your
anticipated intervention, kindly accept the assurances of our warm regards,
please.
Yours faithfully
FOR: NASSLAF
Barr.
