The Prevention and Combating of Corruption Bureau (PCCB) Chief, Dr Edward Hoseah, yesterday came out to defend himself and the agency over investigations into MPs alleged pocketing of double allowances.
Besides, the PCCB Director General said he would not bow to pressure and resign as demanded by the MPs who have also called on the government to sack him over his perceived defence of the infamous Richmond power generating company.
Addressing his first press conference following a scathing attack on the PCCB and himself by a section of the MPs under investigation, Dr Hoseah reiterated that the anti-corruption agency will be undeterred in pursuing its investigation.

Wengine waukumiwa kunyongwa kwa kuuwa ALBINO
Tanzania's high court has sentenced four men to death by hanging for killing a 50-year-old albino man, local media reported late on Monday.
Television footage showed the men, who killed Lyaku Willy and removed his head and legs, leaving the courtroom in Shinyanga region under heavy police escort.
Willy's killing was one of a spate of attacks on the country's estimated 200,000 albinos in the past two years, mostly in the remote northwest of the country near Lake Victoria, where superstition runs deep.
Their body parts are prized in some regions of Tanzania, where witchdoctors say albinos -- who lack pigment in their skin, eyes and hair -- bring luck in love, life and business.
