A three-term member of the House of Representatives, Mr. Adams Jagaba, on Wednesday, denied any connection with the alleged bribe which the then Chairman of the House’s Ad-hoc Committee on Fuel Subsidy, Mr. Farouk Lawan, was said to have received from billionaire businessman, Mr. Femi Otedola, in 2012.
Jagaba denied among others claims, all of which were credited to Lawan, that a certain sum of $620,000 from the bribe allegedly received from Otedola, was reported and handed over to him with a covering letter by the ex-chairman of the House’s ad-hoc committee on petroleum subsidy.
The lawmaker, representing Kachia/Kagarko Federal Constituency of Kaduna State in the House of Representatives, also said Lawan never visited him (Jagaba) at about 3am on April 24, 2012 as claimed.
