…Seeks Culprits’ Arrest
By John Nwokocha Abuja
Minister of Justice and Attorney General of the Federation, Mr Abubakar Malami SAN, has dismissed reports claiming he was bribed by Godswill Akpabio Senator to influence the appointment of a Sole Administrator of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC).
A statement by Malami’s special assistant on Media and Public Relations,
Dr. Umar Jibrilu Gwandu, argues that the minister
“has not collected and does not intend at any time to receive any gratification from any dealing in discharging any function he is constitutionally empowered to perform”.
According to Gwandu the attention of the Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, SAN, has been “drawn to fictitious and malicious publications alleged by mischief makers claiming that the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Mr. Godswill Akpabio offered him gratification in respect of the appointment of a Sole Administrator of the Niger Delta Development Commission.
“The report, as any fake news, was marred by evincing contradictions, figment of imagination, sheer fabrications and filthy assumptions of mischief makers and detractors.
“Any discerning mind who read the story will not fail to note the desperate attempt to cast aspersion on the Honourable Attorney General of the Federation and dent his hard earned reputation with unsubstantiated allegations spread by perfidious elements”.
The statement added that the Minister of Justice, “hereby make an outright denial of the report in its entirety”.
He called on Nigerians to disregard the information, and asked individuals who have any information, if any, regarding those who facilitated, accepted, deliver or take part in one way or the other in the alleged offer and purported acceptance of gratification for him or his office to come out publically with the information with a view to exposing them and taking further necessary action.
Malami stated further that gratification is a criminal offence.
Malami according to the statement urged those behind “the fictitious publication to approach relevant security and law enforcement agencies and proffer information that could lead to the criminal investigation against him if they feel strongly about their purported claim”.
