Also spotted at the meeting was the Director General of the Department of State Services, Lawal Daura.

Conspicuously absent was the inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris.

Idris is at loggerheads with the Senate.

He has spurned the invitation of the Senate three times, leading to his being declared “enemy of democracy”.
