He was appointed vice chairman of the Public Accounts Committee. In October 2004, he made the headlines when he slapped fellow-senator Mrs Iyabo Anisulowo, chairperson of the Senate Committee on State and Local Government Affairs, outside the lobby of the National Assembly. The Guardian reported that dispute may be related to disbursals of her committee's funds. The Senate responded by suspending him for two weeks.
