Adelanwa Bamgboye
A former Comptroller-General of Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS), David Parradang, has cleared both former Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Interior, Mrs. Anastasia Nwobia and a Deputy Director in the same ministry, Mr. F.O. Alayabami from having a hand in the 2014 N676 million immigration scam.
Parradang is a prosecution witness during the resumed trial in the suit filed by the federal Government against the former Minister of Interior, Abba Moro and four others.
He told the court under cross-examination that both Mrs. Nwobia and Mr. Alayabami, neither attended meetings nor had their names or signature in the recruitment contract.
While answering questions put across to him by Chief Chris Uche (SAN) and Frank Ikpe, representing the second and third defendants, respectively, the witness also admitted that the Nwobia was posted out of the ministry about three months before the commencement of the exercise.
Specifically, when asked by Uche that the Permanent Secretary was transferred to a different ministry about three months before the incident, the witness replied: “Now I know. If she left in July, I agree that she had left the ministry before the implementation began.”
