Dogara has seized computers in Appropriation secretariat to tamper implicating docs, Jibrin says
Abdulmumin Jibrin, again, has said that the Speaker is making frantic efforts to tamper documents that could implicate him.
The former chairman of the House of Representatives Appropriation committee, made this recent allegation in a statement he signed himself.
He said, “Speaker Yakubu Dogara has ordered that all the computers in the Appropriation secretariat be shut down and moved to his office, as if that is the answer to the allegations I raised. The secretariat staffs are being harassed to keep quiet and suppress facts. There has also been an attempt to break into my office at the House.

“I know he wants to tamper with documents critical to his and the three others future investigation and prosecution but unfortunately for him, we already have enough evidence in our possession. The security and anti-corruption agencies should kindly take note.”
This is only one of several allegations Jibrin has raised against Dogara, since he accused the Speaker of padding the budget along with some principal officers of the lower chamber.
