The Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, has withdrawn the invitation extended to the Emir of Kano, Alhaji Muhammadu Sanusi.
Egbetokun has, however, directed the Kano State Command of the force to obtain Sanusi’s statement in the state regarding the incident.
The police boss issued the directive through the Force spokesperson, Olumuyiwa Adejobi.
According to Adejobi, the withdrawal was due to the intervention of certain stakeholders in the country.
He also stated that the decision was in line with the police’s commitment to ensuring that policing actions are not politicised or misinterpreted.
