arrested on Thursday, January 12, over accusations by the National
Pension Commission.
He was said to have ordered staff of the pension commission out of the office using some armed men.
The staffs were later taken to the
Financial Controllers office and some documents belonging to the company
taken away from them.
Vanguard reports that Duru was
arrested on the order of the inspector general of police and was taken
to Zone 2 police command where he was detained.
He was later rushed to the emergency unit of the Police Medical Centre before being taken to a private ward.
But in denial, Duru said the allegations against him are false.

also prevented him from taking his medicine after his arrest, thus,
aggravating his health condition.
Duru
said the assistant inspector general of police in-charge of Zone 2
command, Onikan, Kayode Aderanti denied him access to medical care until
one of the policemen raised the alarm over his deteriorating health.
