Akande said;
“We also recommend that the activities of the house should be digitalised for proper record keeping and monitoring.

“The speaker did not have multiple accounts with Ecobank, the BVN ascribed to Wema Bank does not belong to him and the companies attributed to him in Wema Bank is not correct.”
