Embattled lawmaker, Abdulmumin Jibrin, on Thursday forwarded names of 50 members of the House of Representatives who allegedly took illegal allowances to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.

Mr. Jibrin said he demanded a thorough investigation of the individuals as well as their prosecution.

The submission followed the expiration of a three-day ultimatum Mr. Jibrin gave lawmakers to return their illegal allowances through the Clerk of the National Assembly since the issue of budget padding surfaced.
