Veteran Journalist Alfred Sasako says he is astounded to see the language and the way Parliament has come out in a public statement to suggest that the Public Accounts Committee was lying about any former members of parliament being investigated.
Mr Sasako made the comment after parliament came out in the media and denied any investigations being carried out by the Public Accounts Committee.
Earlier Alfred Sasako quoted a reliable source within PAC confirming police is actively investigating some MPs to be accountable for how they spend their constituency funding.
He says Parliament is the last institution in the land that should have stooped so low to tarnish its image.
“I was quite surprised to see the language and the way Parliament has come out in a public statement to suggest that the Public Accounts Committee was lying; that there were no reports from the Public Accounts Committee. Now they must be sitting in a wrong Parliament. In fact, parliament is the last institution in the land that should have stooped that low for its image to be tarnished in this whole thing. What I saw in their statement is nothing more than a stone walling tactics that they want to use.”
