A Special Police Gazette Bulletin issued on Monday bearing the photograph of Hon. Shehu, from the Office of the Inspector General of Police, said the lawmaker was wanted in connection with a case of criminal conspiracy, causing grievous hurt, inciting disturbance of public peace, and culpable homicide.

Police said, “The above person is hereby declared wanted by the Nigeria Police on CRO Form 5, issued by the Inspector General of Police. He is wanted in connection with a case of criminal conspiracy, causing grievous hurt, Incitement, Disturbance of Public Peace and Culpable Homicide.”
