House of Representatives.
The House of Representatives has concluded plans to interrogate former Presidents Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan at their homes over the recovery of money allegedly stolen by a former military Head of State, the late Gen. Sani Abacha.
An 11-member panel of the House constituted to investigate the recovery is set to start work this week, according to The Punch.
Findings indicated that the panel, which is chaired by a former Chairman, House Committee on Appropriation, Abdulmumin Jibrin, would visit Obasanjo and Jonathan in their homes to question them over their role in the recovery.
As stated by report. the visit is to be a deviation from the usual practice of issuing summons to persons to appear before National Assembly committees in a bid to accord the two former leaders due respect.
However, the committee will summon the Minister of Finance, Kemi Adeosun; the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami; Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria, Godwin Emefiele; and a former Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala.
Also to be summoned are former AGF, ministers of finance and CBN governors who served during the tenure of the late President Umar Yar’Adua.
