SERAP drags FG to court over failed Chinese $460m Abuja CCTV project vanguardnews

Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project has sued the Federal Government over failure to “disclose information and specific documents on the total amount of money paid to contractors from the $460 million loan obtained in 2010 from China to fund the apparently failed Abuja Closed-Circuit Television project.

SERAP also sought “an order of mandamus to direct and compel the Minister of Finance to disclose whether the sum of N1.5 billion Naira paid in 2010 for the failed project meant to construct the headquarters of the Code of Conduct Bureau was part of another loan obtained from China, and to clarify further whether the sum of N1.5 billion Naira mobilization fee for the construction of the Headquarters of the CCB in Abuja was part of another loan from China.

“Democracy cannot flourish if governments operate in secrecy. The citizens are entitled to know how the commonwealth is being utilized, managed and administered in a democratic setting.”

And more of such fail projects are coming.
