Six members of the National Assembly Service Commission have described their colleague, Alhaji Idi Adamu Ningi as a liar, a traitor and a man who cannot stand by his word.
The commissioners, in a counter statement against Ningi’s claim that he did not sign any document disassociating himself from the appointment of Alhaji Mohammed Sani-Omolori as acting Clerk of the National Assembly, said that they were disappointed at his inability to stand by his word.
The statement reads: ”It has come to our attention that a member of the commission, Idi Adamu Ningi, has denied rejecting the appointment of Mohammed Sani-Omolori as Acting Clerk of the National Assembly.
“It is unfortunate that he could speak from both sides of the mouth, an action which speaks of how much of a liar and traitor he is.
“We expect that a man of his age and standing should know better than to publicly deny a position he had earlier taken in the last meeting, which held between us and the Senate President in the interest of the commission which has been brought to disrepute owing to the crisis rocking the commission.
“More so, to think that Idi Ningi could fall so cheap for financial inducement shows that he is not one to call a dependable ally, neither is he in anyway worthy of confidence. His recant demonstrates a lack of maturity that glaringly tells about his character. He is a betrayer and sellout.” [myad]
