We knew $251.6m NigComSat-I could fail —Ex-Minister


A former Minister of Science and Technology, Prof. Turner Isoun, told the House of Representatives on Monday that the Federal Government knew that the ill-fated Nigeria Communication Satellite, NigComSat-I, could fail when it asked the National Space Research and Development Agency to embark on the expensive project.

NigComSat-I, the first commercial satellite by an African country, was inaugurated into orbit on May 13, 2007 in the twilight of the administration of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, costing the nation $251.6m.

The spacecraft, however, failed and was de-orbited barely 18 months later in November 2008.

Isoun testified in Abuja before the House Committee on Science and Technology headed by Mr. Abiodun Akinlade.

The committee is conducting an investigative hearing into the failed project.

China provided about $200m of the project cost via a loan agreement facilitated through the China-Exim Bank at an interest rate of three per cent per annum.

The Director-General of the Debt Management Office, Dr. Abraham Nwankwo, confirmed on Monday that $179.9m of the loan had been drawn down while the Federal Government had paid $9.9m in debt-serving as at December 2008.

The former minister argued that though the government then knew that space technology was a ”risky” venture all over the world, it still supported the take-off of NigComSat-I to help Nigeria to ”gain economic liberation.”

He insisted that Nigeria’s interest was ”adequately protected” when the government went into discussions on the development of the satellite with the China Great Wall Industry Corporation, the technical partners that built the spacecraft.

According to him, the government secured the commitment from China in form of the $200m loan and ensured that the firm would shoulder the insurance costs in the event of the project failing.

He said, “I believe that is why they have undertaken to build a replacement for NigComSat-I at no cost to Nigeria.

“People have asked the question that what business has a poor nation like Nigeria got to do with going into space.

“Well, the answer again, is that India, a poor nation, has also gone far in that direction; it is to guarantee economic liberation.”

The committee, however, said that there was no evidence that the Chinese firm had agreed to replace the crashed satellite as the former minister, the management of NASDRA and the management of Nigeria Communication Satellite Limited would want Nigerians to believe.

When the Chairman of the committee, Akinlade, asked the DG of NASDRA, Dr. Seidu Mohammed, whether he had seen a document proving that the Chinese firm would replace the satellite, he replied ”no.”

“There is no evidence before this committee to show that China has agreed to replace the satellite.

“We have been meeting with the Managing Director of NigComSat, he has not been able to produce any evidence on a very serious issue as this,” Akinlade stated.



But, the MD of NigComSat, Alhaji Ahmed Rufai, claimed in his submissions that a replacement agreement on the satellite existed, adding that President Umaru Yar’Adua was aware of it.

Rufai, who described the failure of the project as ”a blessing in disguise for Nigeria”, promised to forward a copy of the agreement to the committee.”

He told the lawmakers that Nigerian engineers trained in China would use the experience they acquired while working on NigComSat-I to perform better in future projects.

“The experience and the failure of the project will help us in our march for technology transfer and by the grace of God, we are coming out stronger,” he added.

Rufai disclosed that NigComSat generated only N19m from the bulk sale of transponders and another $426m before the satellite failed after spending less than two out of its 15-year projected life span.

The lawmakers cautioned against the move by NigComSat to build NigComSat-II at a time the circumstances surrounding the failure of its predecessor were still unclear.

@ jujukemist
thank u sir!, i really appreciate ur help enlighten me more, i am in lagos, so i guess 2.4M dish would be good? since u said starsat decorder/receiver will be a bit better, i can choose that too, also does it work with the Juju card/abracatabra card? i guess nilesat is the best from all FTA(my own choice though). Also do any channel there show other league like la liga and french league as we know premier league is ascertained. Yes enitan is now joining the 2.4M dish league o, leaving the 90cmiers even tho he would have everything connected( i guess),
Sir if u have idea of other big dish price like 3M or more Abeg tell me o,
Thank u for ur help.
