As regards the 50 million-naira fraud allegation and petitions leveled against Hon. John Urah Ikani, the SA to Governor Yahaya Adoza Bello on project monitoring, the sons and daughters of the Dekina Local Government Area have come out to applaud the director of Kogi State DSS for swiftly carrying out their investigation into the matter.

Speaking this evening, Abdullahi Abimaje lauds the relentless efforts of the state DSS, which heeded the far cry of Dekina Sons and Daughters by inviting Hon. John Urah Ikani for questioning over his financial misconduct and other corrupt practices.

Our efforts are to build a free and incorruptible Dekina local government. We can't afford to have someone with questionable character as the caretaker chairman of our local government. We are happy that the security operatives in the state are carrying out their duties diligently, and we hope they maintain this momentum until the truth is unraveled, says Abimaje.

We must sincerely commend the state DSS for living up to the expectations of Dekina Sons and Daughters. We appreciate these professional efforts, and we will continue to monitor the situation from this end, says Abdullahi Abimaje, who spoke for the group.

It was gathered that Hon. John Urah Ikani was today invited by the Kogi State DSS over his alleged fraudulent transaction with Pastor Stephen Oni.

The development means the efforts of the Dekina Sons and Daughters are yielding tendencies that the security operatives will make known to members of the public in the coming days.
