FG not behind attack on Buhari —IGP

The acting Inspector General of Police (IGP), Suleiman Abba, has cleared the Federal Government of involvement in recent bombings in Kaduna State, which targeted Islamic cleric, Sheik Dahiru Bauchi and former head of state, Muhammadu  Buhari.
Abba, spoke on Monday at his maiden meeting with all Assistant Inspector Generals of Police (AIGs) and Commissioners of Police (CPs) at the Force Headquarters, Abuja.
'A team that was made up of not only of general duty detectives, but also forensic experts, visited the scene and some of the victims in the hospital and even those in the mortuary.
'They conducted interviews with victims and witnesses, including General Buhari, those that were with him when the incident happened and did a lot of other things that maybe we need not mention all of them here,' he said.
He said so far, the findings did not indicate that the Federal Government was involved in either of the two incidents, adding that the military had in their custody one suspect, who was arrested at the scene of the second bombing, adding that the said suspect was previously arrested twice by police at a station close to the incident.
The IGP said he decided to gather all senior police officers in Abuja to enable them to discuss what could be done to improve on the situation on the ground.
