The House of Representatives on Thursday set up a six-man committee to investigate the utilisation of all public intervention funds disbursed by the Federal Government from 2015 to date.
The Committee to be chaired by Rep. Emeka Chinedu, has Chike Okafor, Shittu Galambi, Miriam Onuoha, Oshaba Babatunde and Inuwa Garba as members.
The Speaker, Rep. Tajudeen Abbas who inaugurated the committee at the plenary in Abuja, said the funds include bail-out funds and other similar interventions by the federal government.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the committee was a sequel to a motion on urgent National importance by the Minority Leader, Rep. Kingsley Chinda.
