No regime can beat Jonathan when it comes to corruption. The EFCC headquarters contract was awarded in 2010 by GEJ for a sum of N18.8billion and should have been completed since 2013. N18.8billion for the construction of office complex just for an agency is nothing but criminal.

Worst part and for reasons that we don't know, the project was not completed and the Buhari government just increased the contact sum by N5billion due to foreign exchange fluctuation. By all standards, the project is criminally overpriced.

Guy, na u knw book pass.
All others were commenting cowardly.

kenonze:
I personally don't have problems with that.
It's not just the building but the equipment needed

krispycash:
The real question is why build a new hq when u can restructure the old one Why pull out a fresh contract worth billions of naira for building when other things are in dire need of attention?
The people in power obviously have no knowledge as to how to run a country... All they talk about is money... When they can help people get jobs... And improve the educational system which is presently a joke... But a corrupt man talking about fighting corruption? Na.... They are all one and the same... It is always the corrupt ones that seek to fight corruption

SalamRushdie:
What does EFCC need a 24 billion naira building for even though it's clear the figure has been padded by a million percent

PapaBrowne:
24 billion?? That's like $80 million.
Hmmm. This country ehn

24 billion will buy 4000 Tractors for Nigerian farmers with combined capacity to till 20,000 hectares of land daily or 3 million hectares yearly.

Each hectare producing food products of about 500,000 Naira average per planting season or 1 million Naira per year.


3 million hectares at 1 million Naira yearly equals 3 Trillion Naira worth of food products produced if common sense existed amongst those boneheads in government. No they rather spend the money on a building for that would house barely 500 workers for an agency that already operates in an existing headquarters. It's a pity.

Bros,

In situations like this, I will rather we find out more about the details of the contract, rather than make statements that are uninformed. If the contract was valued at N18b+ as at 2010, what was the details? How did we allow such an humongous value without knowing the details? In fairness it might be that the huge cost comes from sophisticated technology, for example satellite links and stuffs. On the other hand it may be that we signed a "mugu" contract. Good enough the contract was awarded to JB, as such can be investigated

It is a shame that a contract that was awarded in 2010 and was supposed to last 3years is now being resuscitated 7years later, hence a N5b variation. All in all, we should get the details and get a clearer perspective

obonujoker:
24 billion for EFCC...lol.... integrity government

krispycash:

Very true, but my statement is based on facts... Many projects awarded last year are being rewarded again this year... Check the budget if u have access to it... Also all I am saying is this... Why allocated such a preposterous amount we are complaining about recession and instead of cutting expenditure and increasing revenue the government seems to be spending more than it should on a commission that literally steals more than the people it arrests... Renovation is allowed... Instead of building a fresh HQ
