Hon. Farouk Lawan responds to bribery allegations


My attention has been drawn to several newspapers and internet stories alleging that a prominent member of the House Adhoc Committee on Petroleum subsidy demanded and received the sum of $600,000.00 as bribe from an oil marketer.

I wish to categorically deny that I or any member of the committee demanded and received any bribe from anybody in connection with the fuel subsidy probe and I believe this is evident from the thorough and in depth manner the investigation was carried out and the all encompassing recommendations produced therefrom as approved by the whole House.


The general Public is hereby reminded that during and after the investigations we have severally raised alarm on pressures on us from different quarters. In particular. I wish to refer to the front page publication in the Leadership Weekend newspaper of 28thApril 2012 captioned “Marketers offered subsidy committee plane-load of dollars” where we alerted the public that a marketer promised to fly in a jet loaded with US Dollars which he  “intended to share to both the House leadership and members of the Adhoc Committee” to influence the outcome of the report.

This clarification is necessary in order to clear all the insinuations being bandied about and more importantly to enable the Government   concentrate on the implementation of the report.

The present mudslinging is not unexpected in view of the caliber of people whose actions and inactions were found wanting in the report. I am aware that in their desperation to discredit the report and divert the attention of the public from the real issues of large scale fraud in high places established in our report, a video footage displaying a caricature of my person allegedly having a dealing with a marketer reminiscent of the military era when dignitaries were invited to the villa to watch a video clip of a phantom coup involving Chief Olusegun Obasanjo is already in circulation.

I wish to assure all Nigerians that the sanctity of our report remains unassailable and it will be in the best interest of the country if the relevant authorities faithfully and conscientiously implement the resolutions of the House. No amount of redherring and cheap blackmail will affect our resolve to continue to act in the best interest of the country with all the available information at our disposal. No doubt, the last has not been heard.

  3. At last we have what we were looking for: the give of the bribe. All that we need now is the name; this being the first confession that someone actually ate subsidy money. If not why offer bribe? This clearly the case of not dying alone by the alleged giver of the bribe. EFCC should start with giver 4 two reasons: (1) that he or she by giving bribe has confessed to embezzling subsidy money (2) that he or offered bribe to cover up the criminal act. To Farouk: did you hint anyone that u were offered bribe, but u re waiting for the said offeror to confessed first so that there would no case of denial if u came out first? If ur intentions were different then u should be charge along side ur offeror on one count of accepting bribe! God blessed Nigeria!

  4. I believe him the man has a track record of upholding his honesty in several time during ,Etteh,Bankole and now if the man want to make money he will have compromise in the begining of the probe and not after the report was submitted,come to think of it why will someone who is guilty of a crime will bribe his way out and still go and report his bribery allegation to the security agent.let wait and see,Hon Umar is one of the youth that we are really proud of

  6. I believe you Sir. A thorough analytical mind would know that these marketers would try to tarnish your image and those of members of the Ad-hoc committee. Its just a distraction, and it is expected. Nigerian watch alot of American movies, yet they fail to see and understand how people can be framed.
    Also, the givers of the bribe are already guilty, and Farouk stated earlier that they were under immense pressure from different quarters. I personally watched this on AIT when he presented the report to the house.

  8. They are only trying to rubish the committee. Let the Govt take a decisive action on this issue. This should not be swept under the carpet again.

  9. Hon Farouk, the issue was well debated amoung some enligthened Nigerians yesterday, and someone asked 'if the bribe was taken, why was the report submitted?' While looking unto God, we pray that EFCC and other boies are not bought over to unfold the evil doers in this issue of subsidy. Hon Farouk, let me say IT IS DIFFICULT TO BELIEVE YOU, unless the the outcome of your report is implemented to the letter.
