This development arose following an alarm raised by Friday Iko, an individual who urged anti-graft and related agencies to investigate the PAP headed by Idiomu, over alleged corruption and imputing fraud in the disbursement of funds to the PAP Cooperative.

Iko had among other issues alleged that “some members of staff in the office are receiving huge amounts for welfare ranging between M15 to N10 million for monthly running cost”.

Reacting, PAP, however, said the monies mentioned were clearly a figment of Iko’s imagination, who intends to use the media to promote a false narrative against the good works of Idiomu, in the region.

Akpor described the allegations as “not only false but also baseless and a calculated attempt to commence another round of a smear campaign against the interim administrator and his dedicated management team by forces from within and outside the office”.
