Reps probe N52m fraud allegation against CCT chairman



John Ameh, Abuja

The House of Representatives on Tuesday asked its Committee on Public Petitions to investigate an alleged N44.5m fraud committed by the Chairman of the Code of Conduct Tribunal, Mr. Yakubu Umar.

Among the allegations was the payment of N1m in July 2011 from the coffers of the CCT to sponsor his wedding.



Umar was also alleged to have spent N15.2m to purchase a Toyota Prado Jeep “without following due process.”

The House gave the directive after a member from Taraba State, Mr. Rima Shawulu, laid a petition before the legislature detailing the alleged infractions of the CCT chairman.

However, the petition was authored by the Anti-Corruption Network, a non-governmental organisation.

The session was presided over by the Speaker, Mr. Yakubu Dogara.

In March 2011, Umar was said to have awarded contracts for the supply of office furniture and fittings in the sum of N11.3m.

The contracts were reportedly executed by a “supposedly engineering company and not a furniture or supply company.”

He also allegedly paid N4. 2m for the “purchase of welfare items” in a contract executed by a private individual.

Another N4.2m for the procurement of external light bulbs was described by the petitioners as “entirely fictitious contract.”

Other figures listed against Umar by the petitioners ranged from N1.5m to N3.7m.

The document was signed by the Executive Secretary of the network, Mr. Ajulo Ajulo .http://punchng.com/reps-probe-n52m-fraud-allegation-against-cct-chairman/

This Danladi Umar is one hell of a dirty Judge!!! We cannot afford to have this man staying one second longer on the bench!! He must be removed as the CCT chairman with immediate effect.

No wonder he has now become a tool in the hands of enemies of democracy to be hounding political opponents

The CCT chairman has been there since the days of yam and goat government when stealing is not a corruption. Now the parade has change music and everybody must perform his/her duty diligently. Danladi will finish his job, I mean Saraki trial and if him " Justice Danladi " his guilty of corruption charges too, kirikiri will be his final abode. Witch hunting or Ogbanje hunting, every corrupt official found guilty must dance azonto in room 33 kirikiri building or Kuje resort.

How is he one hell of a dirty judge? Has he been found guilty already? His removal would even be a thing of joy because his exit would just pave way for entry of an hardcore no-nonsense man that would hear Saraki case to a logical conclusion. CCT is a body while the chairman is just a man. Thank God, he was appointed by PDP government and the allegations leveled against him were committed while Mr Gej was the president.

When Rev Martins Kukah sounded the warning they said he was shielding corrupt officials but the man through wisdom and understanding knew the same corruption they were trying to fight will surely fight back. Isn't that what is playing out? Let the president just do his job of taking Nigeria to its desired promise land because as for going to jail is concerned mark my words 'that 1 na 4 newspaper and nairaland'

Let keep our fingers cross and watch the thriller but one thing I am 100% sure of is that Saraki can never win this battle.

Among the allegations was the payment of N1m in July 2011 from the coffers of the CCT to sponsor his wedding.
Most public officers are given certain amount during wedding.



Umar was also alleged to have spent N15.2m to purchase a Toyota Prado Jeep SUV “without following due process.”
But for the omission of 'due process', that's the price of that SUV.

In March 2011, Umar was said to have awarded contracts for the supply of office furniture and fittings in the sum of N11.3m.
The contracts were reportedly executed by a “supposedly engineering company and not a furniture or supply company.”
Prices quoted to furnish even a Director's office in the Ministry is always higher than this. And 'supposedly' remains mere unsubstantiated accusation.

He also allegedly paid N4. 2m for the “purchase of welfare items” in a contract executed by a private individual.
Further information needed on this...

Another N4.2m for the procurement of external light bulbs was described by the petitioners as “entirely fictitious contract.”
N4.2m is outrageous if found true, except a step-down transformer is bought alongside.

Other figures listed against Umar by the petitioners ranged from N1.5m to N3.7m.
Incomplete...


In conclusion, but for 'electrical fittings', most of this allegations are mere waste of time.

If it was a junior officer's wedding, money would have been appropriated. So because he's the beneficiary, he shouldn't sign it?

I see you logic.

Who is Father Kukah protecting? What is his interest in the whole thing? The emergence of PMB has really exposed the likes of Father Kukah who they really are. His utterances nowadays potrait him a regionalist instead of nationalist dut to his possible hatred for PMB.
