Mohammed Zagga: A country hijacked by cabals

Once again, the House of Representatives is in the storm of another bribery scandal, coming two months after the suspension of the Committee on Capital Markets, led by Herman Hembe. In the latest scandal, the Chairman of the ad-hoc Committee on Fuel Subsidy Probe, Malam Faruk Lawan, was allegedly caught on video receiving a $620,000 bribe from oil magnate, Mr. Femi Otedola of Zenon Petroleum and Gas Limited. The current scandal rocking Faruk Lawan has already dampened the enthusiasm of many Nigerians who had thought that the probe into the N2.6 trillion subsidy frauds would be the beginning of the end of impunity in Nigeria. Alas, we are now left with a sour taste in the mouth.

His discrepancies and inconsistencies lay him bare to allegations and suspicions of insincerity. At a press conference on Sunday, June 10, 2012, Lawan denied either demanding or receiving bribe in the course of the fuel subsidy probe and that the allegation was a set up to discredit his committee’s report. His subsequent contradictory
