In 1996 – 2002 Bakai was a member of the Verkhovna Rada (Ukrainian parliament). Initially, he was elected in 1996 as a non-partisan from Kyiv Oblast. In the parliament he was a member of a deputy group "Constitutional Center" and a parliamentary committee on ecological policy.
According to correspondents of Ukrayinska Pravda, Bakai while heading Naftogaz in 1998–2000 has earned around $1 billion.[2] At the end of 1990s Ukraine was consuming 75 billion metric cubes of gas per year, which was fourth indicator in the world, while the country was not among top 20 countries in the GDP volume.[2] In addition to that, Ukraine on its own was drilling 18 billion metric cubes of gas by Naftogas along with some smaller Ukrainian companies.[2]
In 2010, he was involved in scandal around the Schlosshotel Bühlerhöhe.[3] Because of that, previous owner of the hotel Dietmar Hopp filed a lawsuit against Bakai to recover 14 million euros debt.
