At a public hearing on IDPs which held at the National Assembly yesterday October 6th, the Chairman of the committee, Sani Zorro, berated the SGF for failing to honor their invitation to explain how such a huge amount of money was spent.
“The SGF who was slated to have appeared hasn’t showed up. He did not write to intimate us on why his office would not come to explain why issues of internally displaced persons have remained disencouraging, in spite of the billions of naira claimed to have been spent. The PINE officials said he’s at the village. But, as the secretary to the government under whose office the rehabilitation of the North-East was placed, we had expected him to come to throw light on the financial expenses made by his office.
We also expected him to explain the implementation framework being used to spend money. We have been inundated by reports of diversion of materials and funds meant for the rehabilitation of the IDPs, and the North-East and the scandal had led to international embarrassment for the country. Given the issues of credibility and integrity raised against the agency in charge of the North-East Initiative (PiNE) which falls under the SGF office, we had expected him to respect the invitation.” he said.
However, Executive Secretary in charge of the Presidential Initiative, Umar Gulani, who testified before the committee, said that N270 million was awarded as contract for the removal of 250 kilometres of “invasive plant species along river channels and simplified village irrigation scheme (phase II) in Komadugu Basin in Yobe’’.
The House committee chairman expressed dissatisfaction with the explanation saying:
"We are of the opinion that the expenditure of the magnitude you have made is not justified. It’s not acceptable that you would spend such a huge amount of money on the clearing of weeds while 2.5 million internally displaced victims of terror go hungry. They have no shelter and medical care.”

This is what happens when you move corruption from one room apartment to Duplex. It begins to mess up the infrastructures therein. Corruption is very very insidious!
I thought Buhari is fighting corruption and has hired incorruptible men?
Can you just imagine a nation that is full of waste? 270million to clear glass? I will gladly do for just 5millions, is not to get laborers, engage they will cutlasses and where they can get to, you will need the help of bulldozers, and some weed remover?
This government is the most corrupt government of all times. Shame to them, I hail my Jona transparent man.
What kinda grass is #270m use to clear . That amount of money will feed the IDPs residents for at least one week. Can't they ask the people in the IDPs to cut the grass, it's not like they have a job they do there. Infact, this scam change APC government will not cease to amaze me. What is more wasteful than this......Incompetent clueless mofos
That kinda amount only to clear grass?? Even employing Carlos, Bill and Mark to do the job won't cost dat amount. Criminals!
Yeah it's true it's a poisonous grass! Murafucker fighting corruption ma foot..
And the foolish dullard called buhari the pedophile is fighting corruption
