Senate to probe Obasanjo, Jonathan

The Senate is set to probe the management of the power sector under former Presidents, Olusegun Obasanjo, Umaru Yar’adua and Goodluck Jonathan.

The Committee, which is led by Senator Abubakar Kyari, will also probe the process by which the now defunct Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN) was unbundled.

The Senate reached the decision pursuant to a motion sponsored by the Senator Ali Ndume.

The committee is expected to conclude its investigations and report to the Senate within two weeks.

Meanwhile, the Labour Party (LP) has also urged President Muhammadu Buhari to extend his corruption probe to the Obasanjo administration.
