Bauchi State Governor, Mohammed Abubakar, has described as “ridiculous” the fraud allegations against him by the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara.

Special Adviser to the Governor on Media and Strategy, Ali Ali, in a statement on Sunday, condemned the allegations as absolute balderdash, especially coming from a supposedly enlightened leader.

According to him, the total receipt from FAAC in the preceding three years is nowhere close to that outrageous figure quoted by Dogara.

Speaker Dogara had at a campaign rally in Dass Local Government Area of Bauchi State raised an alarm of alleged fraud and theft by Governor Abubakar, to the tune of N400 billion since he assumed office in May 2015.
