The House of Representatives adhoc Committee probing employment racketeering in agencies of the Federal Government has resolved to issue a warrant of arrest for the IPPIS desk officer of the Asset Management Company of Nigeria (AMCON) Mr Haruna Kolo.

Mr Kolo, an ex-desk officer of the Federal Character Commission (FCC), appeared before the Committee on Monday, where he admitted to collecting money for employment on behalf of the FCC Chairman, Mrs Muheeba Dankaka.

He has however, failed to honour the invitation of the Committee to appear in subsequent hearings on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Similarly, AMCON failed to turn up for the probe despite invitations.

As the hearing resumed on Thursday, the Committee Chairman, Mr Yusuf Gagdi, said a warrant of arrest would be issued against Kolo and be brought up before the committee by security agencies.

The Committee Chairman also frowned at other government agencies for avoiding the probe, despite being invited.

He said there would be sanctions henceforth, for any agency that failed to honour the invitation of the committee.

The Committee Chairman also said the house has resolved to further communicate through newspaper communications for agencies to make sure they appear before the committee.

The hearing was adjourned abruptly till Monday 14th of August, as expected government agencies failed to show up.
