Ogun NUT Protest Alleged N200Million Fraud

The Ogun State chapter of the National Union of Teachers has protested  the alleged involvement of its members in a N200 Million bank loan scam which saw to the arrest of 120 members of the union by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, (EFCC)
 
At a press briefing addressed by the state chairman of the union and other state executive members  of the union in Abeokuta, the state capital, the leadership of the union called on the state government to  put machinery in motion, independent of the EFCC to unravel the alleged culpability of some officials of a first generation bank in the state.

120 members and teachers  were arrested by the anti graft agency for alleged N200 Million  loan as alleged by the bank but they have since been released by the EFCC as non of them was found guilty of the alleged crime.

As a result of the alleged embarrassment this development has caused its union members across the state, these men and women of teaching profession are demanding an unreserved public apology,  failure of which the union said it would be left with no other option  than to seek legal redress.

As these teachers are seeking justice, it is believed that the EFCC  should fish out  those responsible for  this crime since  120 members of the union have been released based on their alleged innocence and bring the perpetrators to book.
