The Kogi State House of Assembly has threatened to issue a warrant of arrest against the Director General, Kogi State Social Investment Programme Agency, KOSSIPA, Aishat Oyiza Omade.
DAILY POST gathered that the embattled appointee of the State Government for several months had failed to appear before the House adhoc committee on special duties, legislative compliance, government house administration and the governor’s office, headed by the majority leader of the house, Suleiman Abdulrazak, a member representing Okene 1.
The Assembly, during its sitting on 30th April 2025, ordered the appointee to appear before it today, being the 6th of May 2025 and directing her to appear with documents requested by the standing committee and her educational credentials, which she promised to provide during her confirmation hearing as the State Coordinator of KOSSIPA.
Stating the position of the House, the Speaker, Kogi State House of Assembly Aliyu Umar Yusuf, noted that the current assembly will not accept any act of insubordination or gross misconduct from any appointees of government.
“Anywhere she is, let her come and appear before that honourable house tomorrow, 7th May 2025.
“Any appointee of the government that was not elected by the People must obey the directive of this house. Failure to do so will make us invoke this house constitutional mandate,”; Aliyu warned.
