Nigeria: Prison Food Contractors Petition Buhari Over N6 Billion Debt by beejaychinedu(m): 11:11am On Nov 16, 2015
An association known as Nigeria Prison
Service Ration and Gas Contractors has
petitioned President Muhammadu Buhari over
N6 billion allegedly owed it by the Federal
Government. The association supplies food items and gas to
prisons across the country. The contractors, in a letter of appeal
addressed to Buhari, dated November 13, said
they had not been paid for food items and gas
supplied to prisons since January, 2015. They said they had resorted to taking bank
loans with all the accumulative interests and
that some of them had disposed of their
property to meet up. The letter was signed by the association's
President S. K Sanni, National Secretary
Eugene Agro and National Vice President
(North West) Ibrahim A. Asarakawa. According to the contractors, if they are not
paid before the end of November, they would
have no money to supply food items and gas
to the prisons in December. The letter read in part: "Needless to say that if
prisoners and inmates of the nation's prisons
are not fed for two days, they could go hay
wire and the consequences are not good to
imagine. We don't want any national
embarrassment for Mr. President and his new government. "We are therefore appealing to the
Commander-In-Chief to mobilise funds from
anywhere to settle our bill before it is too late,
knowing that top on his priority is security. We
have endured long enough."
