Jibrin to Dogara- Don’t Lie, Ibori Gave You $600k From Prison For Your Campaign
Suspended member of the House of Representatives, Abdulmumin Jibrin, has
accused the Speaker, Yakubu Dogara, of collecting $600,000 from James
Ibori, despite the speaker releasing a statement shortly after the
release of the former Governor from a UK prison that he has no
relationship whatsoever with him.
Jibrin, a former Chairman, House Committee on Appropriation, claimed on Saturday that Ibori donated the money to Dogara’s campaign from prison in 2015 to support his bid to become the speaker. The suspended lawmaker claimed in a statement that he chose to be silent lately to strategise on his crusade in the new year.
The statement read in part, “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,” the statement read.
