Meanwhile, Gibson refused to appear before Assistant Chief Magistrate Subusola Swain today to receive his voluntary bill of indictment for alleged corruption during his tenure at the Water and Sewerage Corporation, although he was in the court building.

Gibson faces a total of 56 counts on allegations that he failed to declare his interest in contracts awarded by the corporation.
