EFCC Invites Board Secretary, Sylvanus Tagun, Over Immigration Jobs Tragedy by huxxain(m): 6:25am On Sep 16, 2015
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has invited the Secretary to the Civil Defence, Fire, Immigration and Prison Service Board, Mr. Sylvanus Tapgun, in continuation of its probe of the Nigeria Immigration Service recruitment scandal.

Tapgun is expected to explain how N212million voted for  the ill-fated job test ‘disappeared.’

It was also learnt that the immediate past Comptroller-General of the Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS) Mr. David Parradang, might return for a another round of grilling within a fortnight.

He was granted an administrative.

Tapgun is expected to appear before the commission to testify how the Ministry of Interior arrived at the job test, the choice of a company, Drexel Technical Nigeria Limited, the management of the funds voted for the interview and the actual amount released.

A source said: “We have invited Tapgun for an interaction. He is expected to meet with our team before the week runs out.

“Preliminary findings confirmed that N212million, out of N650million fees, was voted for the March 2014 recruitment test for immigration officers but N45million was actually released.

“In essence, about N167million meant for logistics on the test day could not be accounted for by anyone or group. We are interested in what the N45million was used for.

“We are inviting the secretary of the board to explain the role of the statutory body in the failed recruitment.

“The board is legally empowered to conduct the recruitment into the service. We want to ascertain the extent of the involvement of the board.”

The source added: “Parradang has been granted an administrative bail on personal recognition. We have left his travelling documents intact with him because investigation is yet to reach a level of restriction.

“But Parradang will be invited again to clarify some findings based on our pending quizzing of Tapgun and others already short-listed.

“Parradang claimed that no money was given to the NIS to conduct the aptitude test. There are so many gaps to fill.

“No one can trace the account the N650 million was paid into, let alone the budget for the D-Day.”

While appearing before the then Senator Atiku Bagudu-led Senate Committee on Interior, Tapgun admitted that the consultant released N45 million out of N212 million requested by the board for the logistics of the interview.

Tapgun said Drexel Technical Nigeria Limited – the consultant who anchored the exercise on behalf of the ministry— provided only the N45 million as “discretionary contribution” for the screening

He admitted that the development created “serious logistics problems on the day of the exercise”
