In a series of tweet on his twitter handle @AbdulAbmJ alleged that Dogara and his cohorts are giving $25,000 to each member of the House of Representatives to sign the register.
Following the recent revelation, the former Appropriation Chairman has continued to churn out several allegations against the principal officers of the Green Chambers of the National Assembly.

According to the lawmaker, the vote of confidence register was opened at Dogara’s guest house located at Wilbeford Juta crescent in Asokoro, Abuja.
He wrote:“ Fellow Nigerians, in a desperate attempt, corrupt Speaker Dogara and the 3 others have opened a register for a vote of confidence signature
“The register is opened at his Asokoro guest house located at wilbeford Juta crescent. Hon members are giving $25,000 to sign and this disgraceful act is coordinated by Hon Zakari Mohammed, Hon Jagaba Adams Jagaba and DCOS to Mr Speaker Hon CID Maduabum.
“My stand is that the corrupt Speaker Dogara, Lasun, Doguwa & Ogor must listen to Nigerians, reconvene the house immediately and step aside.
“Investigation by anti graft agencies is already on & I pledge to support the investigation and prosecution of these corrupt public officers
“But I stand by my allegations against Speaker Dogara and his corrupt gang of 12. We shall continue this struggle. There is no going back!!!.”
