Bobrisky: VeryDarkMan appears before Reps panel

Officials of the anti-graft agency and the NCoS were presented as the Committees on Financial Crimes and Reformatory Institutions commenced investigation into allegations of bribery and corruption levelled against the commission and the prison service by the VeryDarkMan.
Newsband reported that in a viral audio clip posted online by VeryDarkMan, Bobrisky alleged that some operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) extorted N15 million from him in exchange for dropping money laundering charges against him.
