Speaker of the House of Representatives Yakubu Dogara, has denied James Ibori's alleged role in his election in the house.



Reacting to the claim of Peter Nwabaoshi, a senator, that the former governor influenced his emergence, Dogara said he does not have any personal relationship with Ibori;

“Our attention has been drawn to statement credited to Senator Peter Nwabaoshi, who was quoted as saying that former Delta state governor James Ibori supported the emergence of Rt. Hon. Yakubu Dogara as speaker of the house of representatives,” the statement read.

“We have watched the video clip and noticed that there is no where the distinguish senator mentioned Rt. Hon. Yakubu Dogara by name.

“However, reports published in both online and print media insinuated that senator Peter Nwabaoshi referred to Rt. Hon. Yakubu Dogara.

“For the records, we want to state that the Rt. Hon. 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.

“Rt Hon Yakubu Dogara does not have a relationship, political or otherwise with former Governor James Ibori of Delta state to warrant the insinuations in the statement credited to Senator Nwabaoshi, and had never had one.\

The speed at which these scoundrels respond to allegations against them is outrageous. Have they been deaf to the cries and complaints of Nigerians? Why can't they in the same vein respond to events in the country?

Nigeria has a very long way to go, how did Ibori gain that status of an Hero, his release was celebrated, the more I look the less I see Naija needs Physical, Spiritual, Psychological, Economical, Moral, Ethical and so on cleansing

Thank You Hon. Dogara

Not new for politicians to talk like children.

Busy body Senator

What is it with this newly released guy sef?

No body wants to associate with an Ex convict

You go soon confess.

Mr Speaker, if you have a relationship with Leo Ogar then you have with James Ibori because he is from that coven of corruption and criminality!

He could not have done this.

Good news: In other new Naira is on the rise. CBN to eliminate black market and Naira to rise further.

Ok

The COUNTRY is really STUPID

All Ibori supporters were instructed to vote for u. So who gave the instructions? U or Ibori? And for what purpose? Gradually whatever that is hidden will come to light someday.

Where then is the padded budget?

Even if he has hand in your emergence, would you say it out?

Believe these politician at your own peril

Dogara sounding like he is better than Ibori.look at mr budget badding sounding like a saint

Senator Nwaoboshi was referring to Igbuya the Delta State HOA Speaker, he wasn't referring to Dogara. It's wonderful how wrong information spreads.
