House of Representatives member, Abdulmumin Jibrin has written a
letter asking the Department of State Services to arrest the Speaker
Yakubu Dogara and some of the principal membes of the House after
implicating them in fraud.
"The House of Representatives under the disgraced Speaker
Dogara truly has no shame. If all Nigerians will criticize the DSS raid
on Judges, the House has lost the moral grounds to join in such
criticism in the face of grievous allegations of systemic corruption,
diversion and embezzlement of running cost and fraud and corruption
against the Speaker and other members which the House is trying to
suppress in a grand cover up never seen in the history of Nigeria" he added.
Below is Jibrin's letter to the DSS:
October 11, 2016
The Director General
Department of State Security DSS
Abuja
Dear sir
RE:PETITION OF CORRUPT PRACTICES AND ABUSE OF OFFICE
AGAINST SPEAKER YAKUBU DOGARA, DEPUTY SPEAKER YUSUF LASUN, HOUSE WHIP
ALHASSAN ADO DOGUWA, MINORITY LEADER LEO OGOR, AND OTHER MEMBERS OF THE
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
You will recall that I wrote you a letter dated July 29, 2016 on
the above subject matter where in I requested on the strength of the
fraud and abuse of office allegations I leveled against the
aforementioned for your office to investigate, arrest and prosecute the
persons involved in the corrupt and fraudulent practices at the House of
Representatives.
I therefore wish to remind you that 3 months after, things have
remained the same. The accused persons have become emboldened, walk
around freelay, carried out actions to destroy evidence, made attempts
to kidnap and assassinate me and corruption continue to strive in the
House of Representatives.
Last week I raised an alarm over a deep rooted systemic corruption
where billions of naira directly stolen by the Leadership and Members of
the House of Representatives in the name of running cost and demanded
investigation and the Minister of Finance to stop payment of such money
forth with because as an insider iam hundred percent sure that the money
is diverted to private pockets through a fraudulent means that has
become the hall mark of systemic corruption in the House but all seems
to fall on deaf ears.
I further provided some names of members involved in the running
cost scam to provide a starting point for investigation and prosecution
as follows ;Speaker Yakubu Dogara, Deputy Speaker Yusuf Lasun, Whip
Alhassan Doguwa, Minority Leader Leo Ogor, Hon Herma Hembe, Hon Jagaba
Adams, Hon Timothy Golu, Hon Yunusa Ahmad Abubakar, Hon Mukaila
Olayiwola Kazzim, Hon Lynda Chuba Ikpeazu, Hon Abdulrazak Namdas and Hon
Osai Nicolas Osai.
I strongly believe that these chronic fraud and corruption in the
House of Representatives is undoubtably a threat to National Security
and must be dealt with decisively without further delays. You will be
failing in your duties and responsibilities as patriotic citizen and
officials of the Department of State Services if you fail to take
necessary action to bring this disgraceful snd destructive situation to
an end.
As I mentioned in my earlier letter, iam ready with and shall
provide upon your invitation and request, all technical and physical
assistance
throughout the period of this investigation, arrest and prosecution.
Please accept assurances of my continued high regards.
Yours in service to our Nation
Hon Abdulmumin Jibrin PhD MBA

The call for Dogara's arrest follows condemnation by the National Assembly who condemned the Department of State Services' invasion of the houses owned by some judges in Nigeria. The agency said it had been planning the operation for some months now.
Jibrin wondered why the agency would rush to arrest judges
following suspicion of fraud while Dogara walks free after being
indicted by him.
