Alleged N19.4bn Fraud: BPP Director Testifies Against Ex-Aviation Minister Hadi Sirika
A Director at the Bureau of Public Procurement (BPP), Mr. Isaiah Yesufu, on Monday testified against former Aviation Minister Hadi Sirika in an ongoing fraud trial over alleged abuse of office and N19.4 billion contract fraud.
Yesufu told the Federal Capital Territory High Court that the BPP was unaware of a contract split in the Katsina Airport terminal project awarded to Enginos Nigeria Ltd—owned by Sirika’s brother, Ahmad.
The EFCC accused Sirika of using his office to improperly award contracts to Enginos, including a N1.3bn terminal project and a N3.8bn fire truck facility, in violation of procurement rules. The defendants pleaded not guilty.
Justice Suleiman Belgore adjourned the trial to April 8 for continuation of the prosecution’s case.
