Newsbrief: Police IG Egbetokun Moves To Track SaharaReporters, Sowore’s Finances Over Promotion Scandal Reports
The Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, has reportedly written to the Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit (NFIU) to monitor all financial transactions linked to SaharaReporters, its publisher Omoyele Sowore, and related accounts.
Sources say the move follows SaharaReporters’ exposés on the police promotion scandal, which have angered the IGP and senior officers. Sowore recently alleged fresh harassment, including attempts to use corporate records for a “sham trial” and pressure to accept a back-door “peace deal.” He rejected the offer, insisting Egbetokun is no longer the legitimate IGP.
The standoff comes after Sowore’s recent detention and charges of inciting mutiny, which civil society groups condemned as politically motivated.
