The House of Representatives Committee on Ethics investigating the $3
million cash for clearance scam involving Rep. Farouk Lawan and
business mogul, Mr Femi Otedola, has been directed to reverse the
decision to hold its hearings in secret.
The directive from the House leadership, weekend, came as it emerged
that the Ethics Committee is to invite the Director General of the State
Security Service, SSS, to shed light on the scam.
The decision of the ethics committee to hold its sittings in camera
came as a major reversal to the transparency and accountability profile
that the Speaker Aminu Tambuwal-led leadership had itself sought to
portray in its actions.
