FCT Consultants Write President Muhammadu Buhari, Senate Over Unpaid Contracts News
The aggrieved consultants say they are being owed payment for contracts and consultancy jobs they completed since 2020.
This is coming after 44 of the consultants had in December 2022 petitioned the FCT minister of state, Hajiya Ramatu Tijani Aliyu, over the long over-due N600 million unpaid contracts and consultancy fees held back by the area council service commission since 2020 after completion of their contracts. In a letter dated January 23, 2023 signed by the 44 unpaid contractors and addressed to President Muhammadu Buhari and chairman, Senate Committee on FCT, the contractors said they had no option than to resort to writing to the president and the senate since all efforts towards getting their monies had proved to be unsuccessful.
Part of the letter stated that: “We the undersigned FCT Area Council Services Commission consultants wish to bring to your notice that jobs that we have duly executed for the past two years, precisely from 2020, are yet to be paid by the management of FCT Area Council Service Commission despite the fact that the Commission receives one percent training fund allocation from the FCT administration on a monthly basis.
