Comrade Daniel Donald Onjeh, former Chairman of the Governing Board of Projects Development Institute (PRODA), Enugu State has written an open letter to President Muhammadu Buhari on alleged ongoing corruption at the Federal Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation and other agencies/institutions.
In the letter sighted by our correspondent, Onje, who lamented that some individuals in the current government were frustrating the efforts of President Buhari in the ongoing war against corruption, alleged that Dr. Ogbonnaya Onuh, the Honourable Minister of Science, Technology and Innovation (FMSTI) was aiding some irregularities in the ministry.
According to him, the Hon. Minister, Ogbonnaya Onuh, is plotting “to return the suspended DG/CEO of PRODA, Engr. Charles Agulanna, through the back door, by removing Dr. Fabian Okonkwo, whom Your Excellency duly appointed, and replacing him with Dr. Arit, a loyalist of the suspended DG/CEO.
“I have proof that the suspended DG/CEO had previously made a promise to Mrs. Arit, that he would groom her to become his successor. Essentially, they are paving the way so they can continue with their wanton looting, and to reverse all the good works of the former PRODA Governing Board which I Chaired.
“Especially now that Your Excellency has granted approval for a full-scale investigation into PRODA, the corrupt cabal is working tirelessly to inject its loyalists into strategic positions in the Institute’s Administrative, Financial and Due Process Units, so they can cover-up their shoddy track records.
“I seriously hope that in the end, the story would not be that the war on corruption at PRODA was won, but lost”.
