By Bimbo Alao

Members of the National Assembly, (Senate and House of Representatives) took a whooping N17b bribe to pass the 2015 budget, former Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iwela, has revealed.

The gory crime was committed between 2014 and 2015 when the two houses were led by current Governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal and David Mark, who was the Senate President. The leadership of the National Assembly at that time was dominated by the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP). The bribe was padded into the 2015 budget, revealed Okonjo-Iwealla. The revelation was revealed in Okonjo-Iweala’s new book, “Fighting Corruption is Dangerous: The Story Behind the Headlines” monitored by Irohinoodua.https://www.irohinodua.org/lawmakers-took-n…i-okonjo-iwealla/
