Honourable Abdulmumin Jibrin has accused Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, of accepting a $600,000 bribe from former Delta State governor, James Ibori while the later was in a UK prison.
In a statement released on Saturday, Jibrin said:
“The propaganda and lies spread around lately by the axis of evil in the House of Representatives to water down my popularity shows how desperate Dogara has become. It is such a shame that Dogara denied that former governor James Ibori provided huge support to his emergence as speaker by mobilising members from Delta State and others from the South-South and South-East zones to support him.
“Since he has disowned Ibori, he should at least have the honour to return the $600,000 Ibori donated to his speakership campaign. I am sure he cannot deny the fact that he collected that money in cash.”
Dogara has denied the allegation.
