Lawmakers release photos of Speaker Yakubu Dogara’s guest house in Abuja

Pictures of what is said to be one of Speaker Yakubu Dogara’s guest houses have emerged.
The pictures of Mr Dogara’s guest house located at Vistula Close, along Panama Crescent in Maitama, Abuja were sent to Premium Times by lawmakers who asked not to be named.
According to Premium Times, embattled lawmaker Abdulmumin Jibrin who is currently fighting Dogara after being sacked as chairman of the House Committee on Appropriation telephoned them on Sunday night, saying he had nothing to do with the release of the photographs.
“I don’t have a hand in the release of those photographs,” Mr. Jibrin said. “I’m dealing with serious issues and not about guest houses.”
Mr. Jibrin had repeatedly said in his allegations that Mr. Dogara allegedly looted funds meant for legislative duties to furnish his guest houses and other apartments being personally used by him.
“Mr. Speaker and Deputy Speaker Yusuf Lasun diverted millions of naira all in the name of paying for guest houses and official residence. The issue became so messy that the Deputy Speaker openly accused Hon Herma Hembe of short changing them of millions of Naira in the deal to the shock of many honourable members.”
