The biggest problem we have in Nigeria are Civil Servants, not politicians. You imagine SON signing off on the quality of this project undecided
No politicians can steal or do sub standard project without the support of civil servants. If you do a good job and refuse to settle, they will write negative report about your project and delay your payment
Your reasoning is too low

You are ignorant and have bellow acceptable rank of IQ

For me, there is culpability within the entourage.

Imagine the said consultant standing unperturbed with hands on the concrete and nodding his head like agama lizard.

When you torchlight even those within the governor's entourage, they might be culpable of the scam work.

corruption has eaten too much into our polity.

That contractor ought to be blacklisted in Nigeria, it's principal officers ought to be prosecuted..

Forget politicians, ordinary citizens sef own too much.

Then he should fire those govt employees in charge of supervising the work as well.
Or do they give contracts and don't supervise it?.

Dat means the governor is innocent?
I thought the governor might have stolen his own money from the project, which reduces it to 10billion!

Slim shady catches shady perhaps. Naija nollywood format wey don cast since. Project that good quality costs 10billion, government will approve for 15billion, source 9billion from abroad and 6billion from government, then give it to contractor that must give back 6billion if he wants approval of contract. Then community and co will take 3 billion, contractor will take his own 500million, owe his workers 1.5billion and buy substandard with the rest.

The real problem is the useless corrupt governor spending 10 billion on some gully project, I bet you that project was 1000% inflated.

What do you mean by 1000percent inflated?

Is governor not part of government?
Re: Jigawa Governor Umar Namadi Caught A Shady Contractor By Himself (Video) by Love800(m): 3:31pm On Mar 24, 2025
I have a question.

Isn't it better to scrape away governor and leave only local government council or chairman to run the state? They(local government) are closer to the people and it will also reduce cost of government(spending).
Re: Jigawa Governor Umar Namadi Caught A Shady Contractor By Himself (Video) by Love800(m): 3:34pm On Mar 24, 2025
I was asking na.
I thought you did not include the governor in the failed project, because i know the governor is not innocent too!

Advancedman:
Also suspended your monitoring team indefinitely and investigate them, from the commissioner to the least member of team including relevant agencies involved in the project across board.
Blacklist the company/companies if possible deregister them.
Investigate them as a corporate entity and how they got certified by relevant authorities such as BPE, CAC, ETC.
I swear down all of them done collect brown envelope ✉️ probably the reasons why the contractor can't deliver

That thief should just forget about getting another contract from the state
Re: Jigawa Governor Umar Namadi Caught A Shady Contractor By Himself (Video) by higgs: 5:44pm On Mar 24, 2025
This is why it is important for serious governors,ministers etc to be visiting ongoing projects.If the governor really means business, the supervising engineer should be queried and the consultant/contractor blacklisted.

Problem with this kind of thing is that middle men have finished the money before it gets to the contractor, so for contractor to see something he has to do substandard
Correct talk!
Re: Jigawa Governor Umar Namadi Caught A Shady Contractor By Himself (Video) by Fujiyama: 7:14pm On Mar 24, 2025
We can safely say that:

There is a state ministry of works and housing.
There is a state tenders board
There are various other state and federal regulators etc.
With all these layers, how did this job turn out like this? huh

As a people we have not demonstrated an ability to build strong institutions. And a country without strong institutions isn't a country.

It's actually both. Politicians and Civil servants.
-
People have to be trained be trained how to govern the country
-Politician.
People have to be trained how to live under the governorship of the
country. - Civil servants.
-
So far, nobody has any proper training.
Hence things are just happening anyhow!
You will understand why Nigeria can never move forward if you are a contractor. Civil Servants are evil, they will teach how to do substandard work to make more profit and share with them.

Let's wait to see what will happen to the contractor because Nigeria does not know how to mete out proper justice for big people...
