A chieftain of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro have called for a full-scale investigation into the unauthorised payments and expenditures amounting to N4.64 billion during the fiscal years 2020-2021 under the immediate past Minister of Works and Housing, Mr. Babatunde Fashola.

Mazi Isiguzoro in a statement signed by him and made available to LEADERSHIP Friday said that the exigency for accountability cannot be overstated as the integrity of the nation’s financial governance is paramount to the trust and wellbeing of the citizenry.

He said recent revelations from the Office of the Auditor-General of the Federation have outlined significant discrepancies in Mr. Fashola’s financial dealings during his tenure.

“It is incumbent upon him to clarify these allegations, as transparency is non-negotiable in public office. The citizens of Nigeria, particularly Ndigbo, deserve to know the truth of these serious allegations concerning mismanagement of public funds.

“It is essential to highlight that during the fiscal years under scrutiny, the current Minister of Works, Senator Dave Umahi, was in office as the Governor of Ebonyi State from 2015 to 2023.

“Based on verified information and indisputable facts, Senator Umahi bears no culpability regarding the unauthorized payments and expenditures of N4.64 billion that occurred during Mr. Fashola’s tenure as Minister.

“This delineation of accountability is crucial in dispelling any unfounded insinuations directed towards Senator Umahi, who has demonstrated exemplary service and dedication to the people.

“These allegations, which carry significant implications, must not, under any circumstance, be allowed to be brushed aside. Public trust is predicated upon transparent governance, and it is crucial that the EFCC and ICPC engage diligently to fulfill their constitutional obligations in this regard.

“It is of utmost importance that Senator Umahi remains focused on his pivotal role in infrastructural development, as he has been tasked with overseeing the rehabilitation of federal roads and has garnered widespread support from the Nigerian populace.”
