Forty-eight
days after he was invited to testify in the investigations into the
controversial sale of Oil Prospecting Licence 245, former President Goodluck
Jonathan has yet to reply the House of Representatives, Punch learnt
on Wednesday.
Better
known as $1.1bn Malabu Oil deal, an ad hoc committee of the House has been
investigating the alleged “diversion” of the money, which was the Federal
Government’s share of the deal.
The
committee is chaired by a member of the All Progressives Congress from Kwara
State, Mr. Razak Atunwa.
The
panel had invited Jonathan on July 5 after it said evidence in the line of the
investigations indicated that the former President had issues to clarify.
But,
as of Wednesday (yesterday), checks at the committee showed that Jonathan had
not responded to any enquiries by the committee.
Findings
revealed that though the committee had written him to either appear or respond
to questions by submitting documents, Jonathan had yet to reply the panel.
