President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday demanded explanation
from the Auditor- General of the Federation, Samuel Ukura, on
why $5 million released for Lake Chad study was not captured in
an environmental audit report on the drying lake.
The report was presented to the President at the Council
Chamber of the Presidential Villa, Abuja, on Monday.
According to him, the $5 million was released for the study on
how to divert rivers from the Central Africa Republic to the drying
Lake Chad.
Speaking during the presentation of the report, Buhari said: “I
have to digress here based on personal knowledge of this. I saw
an article in the journal of National Geographic in 1978 that a
professor in the University of London in 1925 has foreseen what
we are just seeing.
“I handed over the article to Gen. Obasanjo and I understand that
Gen. Obasanjo took the initiative sometimes ago, it is on record
that he is the only Nigerian that has presided over the country for
more than 11 years.
“He gave $5 million to the study, and the study was that unless
some of the rivers from the Central Africa Republic are diverted
to empty into Chad Basin, Lake Chad will dry up.
“I understand that this report which was sponsored by Nigeria
has been submitted. I am a bit disappointed that in the speech of
the Auditor-General, there was no mention of this report and
whether my own report was correct: that $5 million was given.
“One of the recommendations was that at the time the report was
submitted, the cost of diverting one of the rivers to empty into
Lake Chad would be between $13 billion and $15 billion.
“I will like the Auditor-General to comment on this, whether they
have received this report or the Ministry of Water Resources. I
think this government will like to see this report and see how we
can ask our foreign friends on how they can help us.”
