The House of Representatives probe of the alleged sexual misconduct involving three Lawmakers during a trip to the United States, is to commence on Thursday.
At the open public hearing, video evidence is to be presented to the Ossai Ossai Committee by the Ambassador of the United States to Nigeria, James Entwistle, who made the allegations.
The three accused Lawmakers are Mohammed Garba Gololo (APC, Bauchi); Samuel Ikon (PDP, Akwa Ibom) and Mark Gbillah (APC, Benue).
Entwistle had in a petition to Dogara, alleged that the actions of the three lawmakers at the International Visitor Leadership Programme in Cleveland, Ohio, USA, from April 7 to 13, 2016, brought disrepute to the parliament.
According to the US Ambassador, the Reps had allegedly solicited for sex from prostitutes and grabbed a hotel housekeeper in a bid to rape.
Others who have been extended invitations by the Committee to attend the hearing include the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Geoffrey Onyema, the Committee for the Defence of Human Rights, the three accused Lawmakers as well as the other seven Reps that attended the leadership programme.
