Suspect 1

Mr. Williams Alo Nwankwo


[s]Appointed Perm Sec Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs, November 2015.[/s]


Suspect 2.

Dr. Jamila Shu'ara

Appointed Perm Sec Ministry of Petroleum Resources, November, 2015

Suspect 3

Amb. Danjuma Sheni

Permanent Secretary, Federal Ministry of Defence

Appointed November, 2015

These are the only individuals I believe may have access to internal operations information.




Wrong protfolios:

Alo Nwankwo was redeployed to Economic Affairs office

Add Dr. Shehu Ahmad – Fed. Min. of Agric & Rural Development to the list due to the mention of the intervention programs in the write-up. We all know that a lot of intervention funds do come to the Agric ministry.

President Muhammadu Buhari has ordered the sack of a Permanent Secretary, who has been allegedly using his office to defraud the Federal Government through the award of phantom contracts worth billions of Naira to himself.

The permanent secretary, was appointed by Buhari in 2015, was fired, Tuesday, on the orders of the President. A source in the ministry confirmed that two police officers drove the sacked permanent secretary from the Federal Secretariat, Abuja, raising concerns as to what might have led to such an action.

A Presidency source confirmed to Vanguard that the President ordered the immediate removal of the top civil servant, who presided over the affairs of one of the strategic ministries handling intervention programmes in the country following evidence that he awarded contracts to companies belonging to him.

Vanguard learned that the sacked permanent secretary had deployed several strategies to evade a sting operation, which had been planned by one of the anti-graft agencies, thereby making it impossible for the operatives to track him down.

It was learned that key officials of the ministry, who got wind of the illicit activities of the permanent secretary, drew the attention of security agencies to the development and called for urgent investigation of the man.

One of the security agency officials, who handled the investigation of the sacked permanent secretary, told our correspondent that the sting operation planned against the official was frustrated by him and his agents, forcing them to delay his arrest since January this year.

“We have been monitoring the man and the various companies being used by him to siphon huge sums of money from the ministry, which handles intervention programmes in the Niger Delta region but he has been very smart and suspicious of our movement, thereby making it impossible for us to arrest him despite the ambush we laid for him and his cronies,” one of the operatives told Vanguard last night.

He said: “But Mr. President did not waste time in asking the Head of Service of the Federation to sack the man with immediate effect as soon as he got to know that the man had used over 500 companies to award fake contracts to himself and move huge sums of money from the ministry in question.”

“In fact, the discovery of the large scale fraud in the ministry, which has suffered a lot of project failure and the subsequent sacking of the permanent secretary by Mr. President, followed painstaking investigation by the anti-corruption agencies, which will soon charge the man to court,” the source added.

So the P.S has no name ? His name should be published and sacking is not enough , he must be handed over to EFCC for prosecution and conviction
Hiding his name is also a fraud . Why tell us incompete story by hiding the most important part of the story , the name .

Out of these 36, 18 were appointed Nov 2015 by President Buhari and they are marked in red. From the report:

We have been monitoring the man and the various companies being used by him to siphon huge sums of money from the ministry, which handles intervention programmes in the Niger Delta region but he has been very smart and suspicious of our movement, thereby making it impossible for us to arrest him despite the ambush we laid for him and his cronies,” one of the operatives told Vanguard last night.

So this implies that the suspected perm sec (from the 18 in red) overseas a ministry handling intervention programs in the naija delta. Possible ministries that falls into the criteria with a new per sec are the 3 red nameds i underlined above.

Numbers 1, 20 and 21 would be my guess...but then, I could be wrong.

wonderful! Over 500 companies and it's just one man......

If the contract is executed to the standard of acceptance, who gives a ratass if permanent secretary awarded the contract to him/herself? Most the contracts in Nigeria that were not self=awarded have very useless outcome.

Then we wonder why Nigeria is in a rot!
FYI, the civil service rules doesn't support you awarding contracts to family or self.
Read the write up again... Slowly.
