While responding to the presentation, the chairman of the ad-hoc committee, Hon Abdulkadir Sa’ad, commended the Nigerian Navy for availing the investigative panel of vital information which he said would help the panel greatly in the course of its investigations.

He expressed disappointment over the absence of many of the key Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) invited to make presentations to the committee.

Sa’ad warned the defaulting MDAs and other stakeholders who failed to honour the committee to appear unfailingly at the next hearing or be ready to face “unpalatable consequences.”
