Arunma Oteh, SEC Boss, Says House Of Reps Members Demanded N44 Million Bribe by manchy7531: 4:48pm On Mar 15, 2012 |
The embattled SEC boss who has been shown to abuse her office threw mud at the lawmakers grilling her Under fire Director General of the Security and Exchange Commission, Arunma Oteh, fought back fiercely today after being accused by lawmakers for abusing her office and embarking on limitless spending. Today, Ms. Oteh said the lawmakers are furious at her because she turned down the request of the chairman, House capital market committee, Hernan Hembe, for a N44million tip. Ms Oteh said the lawmaker first asked for N39 million to defray the cost of the ongoing public hearing, and when she denied, the chairman asked for N5million. That was in addition to the commission sponsoring a foreign trip for members of the committee, and paying them estacodes. The hefty accusations have unsettled the mood at the hearing, which is being beamed live on television, and lawmakers are scrambling to play down the concerns. After the allegations were made, Mr. Hembe asked to identify representatives of the EFCC and the ICPC at the hearing, and said he was surrendering himself to their probe over the charges. Lawmakers discussed informally the possibilities of containing the news, with senior members questioning why the event was screened live in the first instance. Premium could not ascertain the veracity of Ms. Oteh's allegation against the lawmaker but sources close to her said she arrived the hearing today fuming and threatening that she would unsettle the lawmakers and make them pay dearly for humiliating her Wednesday. More to come...

God knows the Nigerian Nation is forked!!!. We are indeed sick in Nigeria. There is no gainsaying that we are ruled by the worst of us. Infact, I am beginning to think that our leaders have not yet evolved into human. They are substantially baboons with some fleshy garment of humans. Imagine. The accused and the accusers are criminals. 1 Like |

Criminal woman who has spent 30 million on hotel bills over the last 9 months and is billing us over 800,000 a day on feeding. In a proper society she should be singing from an interrogation room. Disgusting criminals. 2 Likes |

Good when because of one kangaroo probe, a group of self serving and self seeking legislators begin to yarn any how forgeting that it is only a foolish criminal that will think that since he wasnt seen he can accuse his conspirators without a fight back. i am sad for naija! |

It is not by counter accusing the committee that she will win this battle. She needs to have very solid proofs, else these lawmakers will grind her and make her blood evaporate. BTW, even if she has very solid proofs, these guys know how to make all these go away with a sneeze. Nigeria, i still hail thee. |

@ All those asking for Nigeria to break,if it does, those corrupt element would still be incharge of the treasury, first ask for these element to land in Jail and barred from involving in Politics. As for this woman not bowing to pressure, please we ask for EfCC to do something, not just paper talk as usual.

Did she UNLAWFULLY spend the amount she's being accused of by lawmakers? If yes, she's guilty as charged. It doe not mean that her allegations are unfounded, but it shows that lawmakers could also be guilty as alleged. BTW, why is she telling us now after going before the house? Telling us after the fact. She should have gone public like El-Rufai and Sanusi! |

Let nobody cast any aspersion on her at the moment until after the allegations had been substantiated or otherwise. But we should remember that anything goes in that useless house of useless representative, they are the most corrupt persons in this country. Probably because she did not accede to their crazy demand hence their humiliation of the lady. |
