Senator Sunday Karimi has been summoned by the Nigeria Police Force following allegations that the former Soviet security agency, KGB, has infiltrated the National Assembly.
Karimi reportedly shared a controversial report titled “KGB Agent Group Warns Senate: A Call for Vigilance Amidst Threats to Democracy” in the official WhatsApp group of the 10th Senate. His post sparked widespread concerns within the legislature.
Suspended Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan petitioned the Inspector General of Police, urging an investigation into the report’s potential national security risks. In her complaint, she stated, “No nation can afford to ignore the presence of such a group within its legislative body.”
Karimi is expected to provide details on the source of the report and its implications for Nigeria’s democracy. The controversy continues to stir debates over security threats within the government.
