I Have Video Evidence Of #Farouk Collecting Bribe –Otedola


The House of Rep Committee on Ethics came under further scrutiny on Monday after Mr Femi Otedola accused one of its members of lying based on the account he gave of Otedola’s controversial appearance before the committee last Tuesday.

“For the avoidance of doubt, we wish to state categorically that the statement credited to Hon. Ibrahim Bello is entirely false and calculated to misrepresent and misinform the public as to what transpired during the closed door hearing held by the House Committee on July 3, 2012.”

“We wish to state further, that there are video and audio recordings corroborating our client’s account of what transpired between him and Hon. Farouk Lawan.

“It is pertinent to emphasise that our client at no time during the proceedings of the House Committee on Ethics and Privileges denied the authenticity of the audio recordings broadcast by the media but only stated that he was not the one that gave the audio recordings to the media houses.”

“This further gives credence to our clients believe that it is in the interest of truth and justice that any hearing into the allegation of bribery against Hon. Farouk Lawan must be held in public and in an unbiased and transparent manner.”

Babajide Koku, SAN, said while responding to published "lies" where Rep. Ibrahim Bello, a member of the committee, was quoted as saying Otedola to
ld the committee that he did not have the video recording of his transaction with Farouk Lawan.
