November 2, 2009 by Bunmi Awolusi
Minister of State for Commerce and Industry, Mr. Humphrey Abah has denied reports credited to him that the administration of erstwhile President Olusegun Obasanjo wasted N15 billion.
Mr. Abah, who disowned the reports while addressing newsmen in Abuja, wondered why he could be so misquoted at a meeting held under a closed door without the presence of any pressman.
He explained that the Chairman of the House of Representative Committee on Commerce and Industry, Hon. Solomon Agidani enquired into the allegations of the missing N15billion from NAC and Sugar Councils funds which are two parastatals under the Ministry of Commerce and Industry,
