Francis Alimikhena, Deputy Chief Whip of the Senate made this known in Abuja on Sunday.

According to him, the lawmaker, who is expected to appear before the committee at 2 pm on Tuesday, will address the committee and respond to questions from members of the probe panel.

He was granted bail by the trial judge, Justice Ishaq Bello, in the sum of N5m with two reliable sureties in like sum.
