The House of Representatives on Thursday vowed to involve the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) to investigate

the owner of the bank account allegedly being used to extort vice chancellors of federal universities.

He said: “I have already written to the ICPC to investigate that account number that was published by the media house, the owner of that account, and whether there is any transaction by vice-chancellors, rectors of polytechnics, and leaders of tertiary institutions in the country.” But the rectors of federal polytechnics in the country refuted allegations on Thursday that members of the House of Representatives asked them to give bribes.
