Chairman House Committee on Information, Olugbenga Omole, disclosed this in a statement yesterday, declaring that they’d do everything within to investigate it.
Meanwhile, revelations concerning the fund came to the fore at plenary when the House Committee on Public Accounts raised the matter and questioned the executive concerning the funds. There have been controversies over which regime hid the money in said account as the statement released by the state Commissioner for Information and Orientation, Donald Ojogo, to absolve the present administration, suggested that the fraud happened during the immediate past administration.
He maintained that if the statements of financial transactions in the listed banks were not supplied as requested, the House would be forced to take necessary steps as entrenched in the constitution. Responding to questions, Commissioner for Finance, Wale Akinterinwa, pledged to provide the necessary documents, claiming he facilitated the recovery of the money.
