Nasarawa Deputy Gov under probe for COVID-19 fund
The state's house of
assembly members who alongside other prominent stakeholders were not satisfied
with how the money was spent, have set up a six-man ad hoc committee to
investigate the activities of the state Task Force on COVID-19.
The committee was
constituted after Mr Daniel Ogazi moved a motion under matters of public
importance, stressing the need for the House to monitor the activities of the
task force.
Speaker of the
assembly, Mr Ibrahim Abdullahi said;
“This is a good motion and I wish to set up an
ad hoc committee to monitor the activities of the state COVID-19 Task Force.
“Mr Abdullahi Angibi
of Lafia Central Constituency is the chairman of the committee and Mr Usman the
Labaran Shafa of Toto/Gadabuke Constituency is the vice-chairman of the
committee.”
The Deputy Governor
who defended himself, however insisted that he advised the house of assembly
members to constitute the committee.
