A ranking member of the House of Representatives, from Katsina State, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told NAIJA LIVE TV reporter in Abuja: “No. no, there is no way we can proceed with the case against him (Akpabio). He has written to explain. I don’t think we are going ahead with the matter in court.”

He assured that the leadership would speak to that effect soon.

Special Assistant to the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, on Legal Matters, Osazee Ogundijie, in a phone interview, couldn’t confirm if the Clerk of the House, Mr Patrick Giwa, had gone ahead with the legal proceedings against the Minister.

“The Office of the Clerk is supposed to be handling it. It was referred directly to his office, though I am not sure he has filed it yet,” he said.

The House of Representatives had resolved to sue the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Akpabio for criminal perjury and civil defamation on Thursday last week.
