Former Chairman of the House of
Representatives Committee on Appropriations, Abdulmumin Jibrin, has continued
to throw up allegations against the Speaker of the House, Hon. Yakubu Dogara.
The ousted chairman had last week accused the
Speaker alongside other principal officers, Yusuf Lasun, Alhassan Doguwa and
Leo Ogor of attempting to pad N40bn into the 2016 budget.
Jibrin, in another revelation, alleged that
the Speaker tried to break into his office in an attempt to destroy critical
documents regarding the allegations of budget padding against him, Dogara.
The former Chairman, in a statement, said
unknown to Dogara, he had in his possession evidences backing the claims.
Jibrin said,
“There has also been an attempt
to break into my office at the House.
I know he wants to tamper with documents
critical to his and the 3 others future investigation and prosecution but
unfortunately for him we already have enough evidence in our possession.
The
security and anti corruption agencies should kindly take note.
“Speaker Dogara has ordered that all the
computers in the appropriation secretariat be shut down and moved to his office
as if that is the answer to the allegations I raised.
“The secretariat staff are being harassed to
keep quite and suppress facts.”
