The Senate through its Ad – hoc Committee investigating how N30 trillion Ways and Means facility was obtained and spent by the President Muhammadu Buhari-led administration has written the Office of Accountant General for the Federation, demanding some documents regarding the loans.
The Chairman of the Committee, Isah Jibrin (APC Kogi-East), said the panel was expecting the documents from the OAGF.
Jibrin made the clarification in a press statement refuting an online report that alleged that the investigation was “in limbo.”
The ad-committee chairman attached a copy of the letter written to the OAGF demanding vital documents required for the investigative exercise.
Jibrin who doubles as Chairman, Senate Committee on Customs and Excise Duties, explained in the statement that although the ad-hoc committee was given six weeks to carry out the exercise, the need for due diligence made the committee exceeded the time.
He said, “The essence of an investigation is to come up with factual findings and not just roll in the report within the specified time frame.
