had reported that the Senate Committee on Public Account led by Senator Matthew Urhogbide had resolved to issue a warrant of arrest against Dikio following his failure to honour its invitation to account for N10bn meant for the programme.
The Chairman, IYC Abuja branch, Adam Marbo, in a statement made available to our correspondent in Port Harcourt on Monday, described the stance of the Senate committee as a witch-hunt, saying the IYC was amazed that the report referred to by the committee was based on transactions that occurred in 2015 fiscal year.
He said, “We can recall that Dikio was appointed towards the end of 2020. What the Senate is investigating is a transaction that occurred in the Amnesty Office in 2015, but was mentioned in the Auditor-General’s report of 2018.“The matter does not concern Dikio at all.
The statement read in part, “We want to say that this move is capable of causing a breakdown of law and order in the Niger Delta region.
Ijaw must protect thier own, just like the North is protecting theirs
The PAP office do not belong to the IYC but for nine states. Bunch of self-centered liars, that's why they are where there in this polity. Fighting over scrumbs when you can own it, Go read a book...nature007
On what bases are they objecting the planned arrest? The truth is that if we want a working Nigeria, we should always stand with the truth no matter who is affected. Though, I don't blame the IYC because of the selective prosecution by the federal government..
