"We collected bribe from Billionaire Businessman Femi Otedola" Boniface Emenalo.

Mr. Boniface Emenalo, who was a member of the House of Representatives Ad hoc Committee on Fuel Subsidy, has revealed why he and Mr. Farouk Lawan, collected bribe from billionaire businessman, Femi Otedola.

Testifying before Justice Angela Otakula of the High Court in Lugbe, Abuja, Emenalo said “The money I collected from Mr. Otedola was meant to be an exhibit to prove that members of the ad hoc committee were being pressurised and I informed my Chiarman (Lawan) and handed over the money to him (my chairman).”

“I maintain my stand that the money collected from Otedola was to show that it was to bribe members of the committee,” he added.
