The House of Representatives, on Thursday, determined to investigate the bribery allegations leveled against the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission and the Nigerian Correctional Service by social media influencer, Martins Otse popularly known as VeryDarkMan.

The resolution of the House followed the adoption of a motion of urgent public importance on Thursday, sponsored by the member representing Ikot Ekpene/Essien Udim/Obot Akara Federal Constituency, Akwa Ibom State, Patrick Umoh.

Addressing his colleagues, Umoh expressed distress over the widely circulated publication by VeryDarkMan against the EFCC and the NCS.

He said, “The publication alleges that the EFCC dropped money laundry charges against Idris Okuneye, also known as Bobrisky upon collection of the sum of N15,000, 000.

“The publication alleges that Idris Okuneye, upon conviction for abuse and defacing of the Naira, by the court, did not serve his time at the Nigeria Correctional Service, but was lodged outside the confines of the service.

 “We are disturbed about the damning allegations against Nigerian critical law enforcement agencies-the EFCC and the NCS established by this hallowed chamber to fight correction and incarcerate persons convicted of crime for correctional purposes respectively.”

He also added that the negative image and portrayal of Nigeria as a corrupt nation in the publication is one that should not be neglected.

Speaker Tajudeen Abbas who presided over the plenary session referred it to the Committees on Financial Crimes and Reformatory Institutions, following the adoption of the motion.
