Following the statemnts credited to James Ibori's associate and Chairman, Senate Committee on the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), Senator Peter Nwaoboshi that even in prison, Ibori made many politicians includeing the imcumbent Speaker Of The House Of Representavives, Yakubu Dogara, the Speaker has responded saying he had no relationship with the ex- convict Ibori.
The ex-convict is to remain in the UK until his deportation to Nigeria is fully processed as he is now restricted to his London apartment and also required to report weekly to the police.
But Dogara yesterday reacted, saying, though there is a possibility that Ibori, could be his silent supporter, he had no personal relationship with the ex-convict and that he was duly elected by members of the lower legislative chamber, not by Ibori “Our attention has been drawn to statement credited to Nwabaoshi. We have watched the video clip and noticed that there is nowhere the distinguish senator mentioned Dogara by name.
“For the records, we want to state that the Speaker was elected by the votes of members of the House of Representatives. There may well be silent supporters and well-wishers of the honourable speaker from far and near some of whom he may not be aware of.
