Ola Olukoyede, chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), has set up a disciplinary team to probe two officers of the agency.
The officers were seen in a viral video “manhandling a female worker” at the Regional Hotel in Ojo, Lagos.
The operatives reportedly invaded the hotel in the early hours of June 27.
Olukoyede had ordered the arrest of the officers on Thursday, while promising a detailed investigation of the incident.
In a statement on Sunday, Dele Oyewale, EFCC spokesperson, said the operatives will appear before the panel on Monday.
He said members of the investigative team are drawn from the promotion and disciplinary committee and the department of ethics and integrity.
“Mr Ola Olukoyede has raised a Disciplinary Team to look into the case of two errant officers of the Commission who allegedly assaulted a female staff of Regional Hotel, Ojo, Lagos,” the statement reads.
Oyewale said the team will recommend appropriate measures.
The statement added that “no stone will be left unturned in getting the officers to account for their unprofessional conduct”.
