Former House of Representatives’ committee chairman on Appropriation, Abdulmumin Jibrin has expressed willingness to appear before his party’s disciplinary panel over the ongoing budget padding scandal.
Jibrin was summoned on Monday to appear by 2.00pm on Tuesday and state his side of the story.
The Kano lawmaker, has been locked in media and political battle with the Speaker of the House, Yakubu Dogara, and other lawmakers he accuses of manipulating the 2016 budget.
In the letter, the APC accused Jibrin of frustrating all efforts to reach him by telephone or text messages.
The letter was signed Lawal Shuaibu, the party’s Deputy National Chairman, North, and it appeared a clear warning to Jibrin that the APC would not tolerate indiscipline within its ranks.
Jibrin denied the allegations on Tuesday ahead of his appearance before the panel.
