Fake Agency Scandal: Who Smuggled ₦1.3bn into Nigeria’s Budget?

Fake Agency Scandal: Who Smuggled ₦1.3bn into Nigeria’s Budget?

The director-general once celebrated by the Deputy Speaker has been arrested over a fake agency. His arrest raises a deeper issue. Who in the National Assembly approved a ₦1.3 billion allocation for an agency that legally did not exist? No evidence yet links the Senate or House leadership, but the passage of funds demands explanation. Nigerians deserve transparency. The probe must go beyond the DG to identify every official who processed or championed this dubious budget item and restore faith in our appropriation process.

How could such a massive allocation slip through lawmakers without any real agency existing in the first place?

It's striking that no evidence yet ties the Senate or House directly to approving that ₦1.3bn fake agency budget.

Lawmakers should enforce stricter vetting for budget proposals to prevent any phantom agency from getting funded again.
