Senate Orders Panel To
Probe N30tn CBN Loans.
Senate President, Gods will Akpabio , has charged the
panel members investigating the N30tn “Ways and Means” loans secured from the
Godwin Emefiele-led Central Bank of Nigeria by the Federal Government not to
leave any stone unturned, saying the panel must unravel everything about the
facility.
The panel was also charged to probe the over N1tn Anchor
Borrower Programme of the CBN under the immediate past administration, and
while inaugurating the 17-member Ad-hoc Committee probing the N30tn loan
obtained during the former President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration, Akpabio
charged the committee to spend six weeks in carrying out the exercise.
Akpabio also cautioned the lawmakers to shun personal and
partisan interest, and focus on the task at hand and approach their responsibilities
with utmost balance, devotion and impartiality.
Meanwhile, the Chairman of the ad-hoc
committee, JibrinIsah, said the panel would not fail Nigerians on this issue.
