Satomi clarified that while the motion was indeed passed and referred to the relevant committees for investigation, it did not include a summons for the FCT minister or the DSS DG. He emphasized, “I want to correct the mistakes in the reports regarding the motion concerning the killing of Hon. Haruna’s legislative aide, Miss Na’imi Sulaiman, and the need to address the ‘One chance’ operations.”
He further noted that the joint committee has yet to begin its investigation but assured Nigerians that they will thoroughly examine the situation and work with security agencies to apprehend those responsible.
