A Kogi-based anti-corruption group, Kogi Grassroot Conscience, (KGC) has raised an alarm that the Kogi State Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Barrister Ndamodu Ali, is corruptly enriching himself with allocations meant for local governments in the state.

In an email sent to Kogireports.com, the group alleged that Ndamodu fleeced the local councils when Liaison Officers held sway which hampered their performances in the respective local governments. It will be recalled that the Liaison Officers had serious financial challenges and were unable to meet expectations of constituents and even failed to meet up with routine council responsibilities.

“When the Liaison Officers were dissolved by His Excellency, Captain Idris Wada, the DLGs were directed to take over the administration of their respective local councils. Ndamodu Ali caged the DLGs and siphoned over N300million from their allocation”, the group alleged.
