Coalition tasks Tinubu, NASS on due process in award of pre-shipment, oil and gas contracts

A pro-public accountability group, the Transparency Alliance Network has enjoined President Bola Tinubu and the National Assembly to ensure strict adherence to due process in the award of contracts, especially in the pre-shipment of oil and gas.

National coordinator of the group, Zakary Musa Zubairu in a statement in Abuja, on Thursday, drew the President’s attention to what he described as the antics of those bent on subverting the already concluded bidding process.

The CSO maintained that its resolve to speak against the breach of due process on the matter was in the best interest of the nation. “…Of all the Companies that won the bid based on their track record of experience and expertise, only Patibon Services Limited and and Candid Oil Limited that made the list finally released on the 25th of October, 2023 vide a letter with reference PRES/87/MF/8. “

It also chided those paid to defend corruption to explain why Nigerians lost over $160 million to Pre-Shipment Inspection failures if not because of their penchant to derail and delay the process until such a time as it’ll be convenient for them to commit their fraud.
