The Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB) has invited the Minister of Interior, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, over the involvement of his company in an alleged four hundred and thirty-eight million naira contract scam uncovered in the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation.
The CCB commenced an investigation into the alleged breach of the Code of Conduct for Public Officers by the Minister as a company, allegedly belonging to the Minister, benefitted from the alleged contract scam.
According to documents obtained by newsmen, the CCB invited the embattled minister to appear before it on Tuesday, January 16, 2024, at the CCB Headquarters, Federal Secretariat Complex in Abuja.
The document signed by the CCB Director, Investigation and Monitoring, Gwimi S.P, on behalf of the CCB Chairman, Murtala Aliyu, revealed that the bureau’s invitation is hinged on its mandate and powers as enshrined in the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as amended.
