Finally, he submitted that the House of Assembly cannot determine the issue of Crimes and do not have the Competence to clear the Defendant of any Crime. There was no Reply on Points of Law on this issue concerning the House of Assembly. Now, it is initially important to note Exhibits D6 and D7, tendered by the Defence, which are the Compilation of Exhibits and the Report of the Special Committee of the Plateau State House of Assembly dated June 2006. This Special Committee was set up by the Plateau State House of Assembly to investigate allegations against the Defendant. Exhibit D7, is the Main Report and from this Report, it is clear that the Committee was mandated to investigate allegations of Conspiracy, Abuse of Office, Official Corruption, Diversion of Public Funds, Stealing and Money Laundering perpetrated by Chief Joshua C. Dariye, the Executive Governor of Plateau State and Others by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission. Eight out of Nine Members of the Special Committee signed this Report.

EFCC, nay, all concerned are hereby advised not only to wait the out-come of the Criminal Trials in Exhibits 6 and 7, but to abide by such out-come or appeal to the appropriate Court.” In Paragraph 6.7of the Report, the Committee inter alia, recognized that their Investigation was not a Trial in a Judicial Sense but was only a Legislative Inquiry. In Paragraph 7.0of the Report, it was stated that the Six Criminal Offences they were to investigate, were punishable under Several Enactments. They added: “However, we are not here concerned with a Criminal Offence or any Trial at all. The task of the Committee is to investigate the allegations of the Commission of these Offences by analyzing the evidence, both oral and documentary and determine whether there is a prima facie case against Chief Joshua Chibi Dariye.
