The suspect who is under investigation with the commission was invited to write a statement in a case of Contract Splitting and over inflation.
He was quizzed and offered administrative bail, but when he reported the next day to perfect his bail, he went to the Zonal Head’s office and offered him the sum of N150,000 (One Hundred and Fifty Thousand Naira) to buy recharge card.
