The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) has handed over a recovered 500KVA transformer to the Federal Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation.
The transformer was received by the representative of the Permanent Secretary of the Humanitarian Affairs Ministry, the Director General Services, Mr Yakubu John, through his staff Agabus Datukum, at the ICPC headquarters in Abuja.
The Permanent Secretary of the Ministry, Abel Enitan commended the Commission for their diligence and promised that the transformer would be used for the purpose for which it was procured.
He explained that the contract for the supply of a 500KVA transformer was awarded in 2013 while the Ministry was part of the Women Affairs Ministry but was not supplied. The issue was reported to the ICPC and the commission investigated, recovered and handed the transformer to the Ministry.
In his words, “The Contractor was reported to ICPC and the Commission investigated the matter and recovered the transformer.
“I want to appreciate ICPC for a work well done and assured that this will be taken to the rehabilitation centre of the ministry where it is meant to be.”
While handing over the transformer to the Ministry, the Branch Head, Proceeds of Crime Directorate ICPC, Mr Udofi Wilson, said the Commission handed over the transformer to the Humanitarian Affairs Ministry because the Commission has done all the documentary processes concerning the transformer.
