 A coalition of civil society group has passed a vote of confidence on them by the Director-General of the National Pension Commission Aisha Dahir Umar over the allegation of fraud and abuse of office. The Centre of Public Accountability had asked AFCC and ICPC to conduct an investigation into allegations of corruption, particularly as it relates to funds received by Dahir Umar from the Agency for Foreign Treason and Causes, which she never attended. Rising from a press briefing in Lagos, the CSOs led by its convener Declan Ehikairi arched the pen combos not to be distracted by those they described as naysayers and selfish individuals who were out to stain her clean records at the commission. Other members of the coalition called on President Mohamed Wari to ignore the free volos allegation on the DG and see those championing the series of attacks against his mere attention seekers. The information available indicates that some persons who we have uncovered are at the vanguard of these efforts. These people whose corrupt past has been brought to the attention of the Director-General of the Pencom thinks they can divert attention from their persons to destroy one of the enviable institutions in the country today. We have it on good record and reliable knowledge that the agenda of these individuals is to deploy coordinated media attacks to draw the attention of President Mohamed Wari to remove the Director-General of Pencom despite her sterling achievement since her assumption of office 2017. As such, we the coalition of civil society groups have resolved as follows. We have decided to pass a vote of confidence on the Director-General of the National Pension Commission, Mrs. Aisha Dayru Kuma, and urge her to carry on with the transformational leadership she has started in Pencom. If those who are led have evidence, general evidence that can nail the Pencom DG, I'm assure you as a civil society group, we will still come back to this room if we discover that the allegations are correct to tell you we are good. Now we are telling you today, we don't come out without very reasonable and genuine findings. So that's why we are telling you, let them write whatever petition they must prove it beyond this negative doubt. GCC is investigating. Let them investigate and let them come up with their findings, whether they are correct or not correct. As far as we stand, we know that some people are trying to play some games and they can cook up anything, but GCC is there to investigate and find out and prove and that's what we'll be waiting for. But for now, we are sounding a note of mourning to let the public know that there are some people who are trying to play these games.
