Rara as he is fondly called is being accused by an 11-man committee chaired by the acting Vice President of the forum, Murtala Mamsa and Chairman, Abuja chapter of the forum, Ahmed Turaki Kaka as Secretary, Daily Trust wrote.
The paper said the committee invited Rara for questioning to give account of the said sum but refused to honour the invitation.
