The House of Representatives Ad Hoc Committee investigating the alleged establishment and operations of the Presidential Foreign Investment Promotion Council has issued a final warning to federal ministries, departments and agencies that failed to honour its invitations, threatening to invoke its constitutional powers to compel their appearance.The chairman of the committee, Yusuf Gagdi, gave the warning on Tuesday, describing the agencies’ failure to appear before the panel as a direct challenge to the constitutional oversight authority of the National Assembly.The committee said the conduct of the defaulting agencies amounted to “a serious affront” to the House of Representatives and undermined the legislature’s constitutional responsibility to hold public institutions accountable.He said, “The committee views this conduct as a serious affront to the constitutional oversight powers of the House of Representatives and an unacceptable disregard for the authority of the Parliament, which represents the sovereign will of the Nigerian people.”Gagdi reminded the affected agencies that invitations issued by committees of the House are backed by the Constitution and are legally binding.He said, “It must be clearly understood that invitations issued by a duly constituted Committee of the House of Representatives are not matters of discretion.“They are issued pursuant to the constitutional powers vested in the National Assembly under Sections 88 and 89 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended). Compliance is therefore a legal obligation, not an act of courtesy.”The committee directed all defaulting ministries, departments and agencies to appear before it on Thursday with all relevant officials and documents requested in earlier correspondence.According to the chairman, the hearing represents the final opportunity for the affected agencies to comply voluntarily with the committee’s directives.“Thursday is the final opportunity for every defaulting agency to comply voluntarily with the lawful directives of this Committee,” he added.The committee warned that any agency that fails to honour the invitation without lawful justification would face the full weight of the law.Related NewsSGF reaffirms Nigeria’s commitment to stronger ties with SerbiaFG urges AU to crack down on illicit terror fundingOld telecom rules can’t handle AI, digital era, says NCC“Any ministry, department or agency that fails to appear without lawful justification will leave the committee with no alternative but to invoke every constitutional and statutory power available to the House of Representatives to compel compliance and ensure accountability.“The Committee will not hesitate to recommend and pursue every sanction permitted by law against any person or institution that deliberately obstructs or frustrates this investigation,” he warned.Gagdi stressed that the investigation was not aimed at victimising any institution or individual but at establishing the facts surrounding the activities of the PFIPC and protecting the integrity of public administration.He continued, “This investigation is in the national interest. It is not targeted at any individual or institution but is aimed at establishing the facts, protecting the integrity of public administration, safeguarding the rule of law, and ensuring that no public office or institution operates outside the framework of the Constitution and the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.”The committee also reaffirmed its commitment to conducting the investigation impartially and professionally.“No agency of government, regardless of its status or perceived influence, will be permitted to undermine the constitutional authority of the House of Representatives or frustrate the discharge of its legislative responsibilities,” he added.The warning comes amid the committee’s ongoing investigation into the activities of the PFIPC, an organisation whose legal status has come under scrutiny following claims that it operated as a government body without formal establishment.At previous hearings, the Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs told lawmakers that it neither recognised the council nor had any official dealings with its alleged Director-General, Prince Adeniyi Adeyemi.The ministry also disclosed that the Office of the National Security Adviser had informed it that both the alleged official and the council were unknown to the Federal Government.The committee is expected to determine whether any public institutions or officials facilitated the activities of the organisation and recommend appropriate legislative or legal action.
