Yunusa-Ari had on April 16 announced the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Aisha Binani Dahiru, as the winner of the election with results of 10 out of 21 local government areas in the state already collated by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

The commission, however, declared the announcement null and void and ordered the REC to stay away from election duties in the state.

President Muhammadu Buhari approved Yunusa-Ari’s suspension on April 20.

Force Criminal Investigation Department, Funmi Eguaoje, confirmed the development to the newspaper on Monday.

PUNCH reported that the panel set up by the Inspector-General of Police, Usman Alkali Baba, asked Yunusa-Ari to show up at the Force Headquarters, Louis Edet House, Abuja.

INEC officials have also been included in the panel headed by the Head of Interpol, Nigeria, Garba Umar, an Assistant Inspector-General of Police.
