<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">IGP Abba noted that: “Even if it exists it may not be unconnected with the fact that “we have been struggling to computerize the activities of the cooperative, he said adding that, “There may be delay but not that anybody is tampering with funds.”</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">“I must tell you, I was worried because up till last week some of us were complaining, that it was fraudulent and if I tell you I wasn’t worried I will be telling lies, because my hands were in it,” he said</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">.Continuing, Abba said: “I was entrusted with the funds in the cooperatives and I was contributing billions to that venture (Police Mortgage Bank). If for any reason things had gone wrong, it wasn’t only the former IG that would have been blamed.”Speaking on the shares certificates of the Police Mortgage Bank distributed to police men, IGP Abba said the establishment of the bank was to enable the police easy access to the funds of National Housing Scheme.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">He said: “If you hear the billions we have been contributing so far and we have not been able to access it, because we do not have an organized way of accessing it, you will agree with me that establishing the mortgage bank was a worthwhile venture.”</span></div>
