The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) has reportedly questioned the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for the Ise-Orun/Ikere/Ekiti Federal Constituency, Hon. Toyin Okoro, over allegations of fraud, conflict of interest and abuse of public office.

According to a report, a former Senior Legislative Aide to the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Tajudeen Abbas, appeared at the ICPC headquarters in Abuja on Thursday, September 17, 2026, following an invitation from the anti-graft agency.

The report stated that the politician was interrogated for over two hours before he was granted administrative bail at about 5:00 p.m.

He was also directed to return for further questioning as investigations continue.The allegations under investigation reportedly include operating a private company while serving as a public officer, allegedly using his position to secure government contracts for his company, and receiving salaries and allowances from the National Assembly while allegedly running the business.

The ICPC is also said to be examining claims of falsification and backdating of resignation documents, as well as alleged false declarations in documents submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC.

The agencies reportedly linked to the alleged contracts include the Nigerian Ports Authority, the Small and Medium Enterprises Development Agency of Nigeria, and the National Agency for Science and Engineering Infrastructure.

However, the allegations remain unproven, and it is unclear whether the ICPC has formally established any wrongdoing against the APC candidate.As of the time of the report, Hon. Toyin Okoro had not publicly responded to the allegations.

The development could have implications for the APC’s preparations for the 2027 House of Representatives election in the Ise-Orun/Ikere/Ekiti Federal Constituency.
