Gov. Yahaya Bello of Kogi has ordered immediate investigation into allegations of assault, battery and other serious crimes levied against the state Commissioner for water resources, Mr Abdulmumini Danga.

The Commissioner for information and communication, Mr Kingsley Fanwo, confirmed this in a statement in Lokoja on Thursday. “The governor, being an avowed advocate of fundamental human rights is shocked by these allegations and will not allow them to go uninvestigated. ” The governor has ordered accelerated investigation into the matter and hereby assures both accuser and accused, as well as the general public, that the whole truth will be uncovered and justice served as appropriate,” the commissioner said.

The governor then called on the people of the state to continue to observe the protocols of prevention and safety relating to the COVIDD-19 outbreak.

Na today. Independent investigation. They thug should be in a cage

When will the investigation in the case of the pdp woman (they?)burnt alive commence?

Nice one justice most b done

Investigation! Nigeria's way of ending high profile matters

To order an investigation is not where it ends rather to see it to the end. Justice shall prevail

For the assault alone, that commissioner needs to be punished...

If you do this I swear am becoming your number one supporter...

Better. However; I think the state has is own machinery for dealing with this-the police. We can’t trust politicians to investigate one another. We can always predict the outcome of self investigation.

Commendable move but the governor should've asked the accused commissioner to step aside first pending conclusion of investigations.

He had better act fast that is if he has no hand in it

Better. I hope action will be taken if found guilty
