The Independent Corrupt Practices and other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) has quizzed a Minister under the administration of former President, Muhammudu Buhari, Dr Chris Ngige, over his role in some contracts and jobs racketeering that happened in one of the agencies under his watch.

Daily Trust reports that Ngige who was Minister of Labour and Employment Ministry in the cabinet of former President Muhammadu Buhari was interrogated by the crack detectives of the ICPC for about five hours on Wednesday to answer some probing questions on how some contracts were awarded in the Nigerian Social Insurance Trust Fund (NSITF)

ICPC had invited some top officials of the NSITF for questioning over payment of N47million gratuity to the immediate-past MD of the agency, Mrs Maureen Allagoa, when she was still serving.
