Following a petition presented by Senator Solomon Adeola (Lagos West) on behalf of one of his constituents, Sgt. Amos Olaniyan on October 6, 2015, the Senate has ordered the reinstatement, promotion and payment of all dues to Sgt Olaniyan who was verbally suspended from the Nigerian Police Force 21 years ago.
This follows the consideration and adoption of recommendations of the Report of the Senator Sam Anyanwu led Senate Committee on Ethics, Privileges and Public Petition that investigated the suspension of Sgt. Olaniyan from the Force.
The Senate adopted the two recommendations of the committee namely: “That the officer Sergeant Amos Olaniyan be fully re-integrated into the Police Force with a
letter of reinstatement and apology” and “That all his dues including promotions and entitlements be fully granted and paid”
Senator Adeola while presenting the petition earlier stated that Sgt. Olaniyan was
verbally suspended in 1994 on a baseless allegation of bribery which an Orderly
Room Trail discharged and acquitted him but the Police refused to recall him
back even as he had his Police ID card and Uniform.
Reacting to the findings and resolution of the Senate, Senator Adeola expressed joy that at last justice has been done to his constituent who had suffered for 21 years without any redress adding that he will always fight for the interest of all
his constituents and the people of Nigeria.
“I was greatly disturbed when I saw his petition as I did not believe this could
happen to any citizen of Nigeria. This was after he had written petitions to previous Inspector Generals of Police and the Police Service Commission and even late President Umaru Yar’adua to no avail.” He stated.
He said he was happy for the family of Sgt. Olaniyan who had endure severe hardship and deprivation on the loss of employment by the breadwinner adding that he will continue to work for his constituents who may have similar cases.
Speaking on the issue, senate President Bukola Saraki, stated that citizens of Nigeria that cannot afford legal fees to seek redress should have recourse to the Senate adding that the Senate Police Affairs Committee should ensure compliance with the resolution and other similar resolutions and report back to the Senate in
two weeks.

ReplyDeleteBoredom is not good at all
ReplyDeleteOh thanks to God, for answering his prayers after 21years of struggle, weeping may last through the night,but joy willl surely come in the morning.
ReplyDeleteHmmmnnn, this is not the end. Most of the resolutions on petitions by the National Assembly are hardly honoured. Remember the poster who was rejoicing that Medical school graduates would be eventually allowed to do the NYSC? I told you guys not to laud the NASS yet as their resolutions were often neglected, and y'all know what eventually happened (the Federal Government still denied them serving). I pray that same will not be the case of the Policeman. Stella, if you want to help this man, just keep publicizing his story and then the Inspector general of Police would have no choice than to carry out the Senate resolution
ReplyDeleteThe Lord is faithful. After 21years he was remembered.
ReplyDeleteGreat news! God never forgets his own
ReplyDeleteNa wah
ReplyDeleteAm happy for him
ReplyDeleteNice one, I pray the resolution is carried out.
ReplyDeleteThank God for him to
