Amaechi Inaugurates Committee To Probe Hadiza Bala-Usman
Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, Monday, inaugurated an 11-man investigative panel to probe the books of the Nigeria Ports Authority.
This is coming in the wake of the financial misdeeds allegedly perpetrated by the now suspended Managing Director of the agency, Hadiza Bala-Usman.
Bala-Usman was suspended by President Muhammadu Buhari following allegations of non-remittance of N165 billion surplus revenue to the coffers of government, an allegation denied by the suspended MD.
The 11-man committee is chaired by Suleiman Auwalu, Director (Maritime Services) while Gabriel Fan, Deputy Director (Legal services), Federal Ministry of Transportation, will act as secretary.
