Recall that Lawal is being probed for alleged contract scandal, violation of Public Procurement Act, abuse of office and mismanagement of funds.

While speaking on the latest development, the source said: “Our team is set and we have isolated eight issues for Lawal to respond to. Both Osinbajo’s Committee and the Senate Ad hoc Committee recommended the prosecution of all those involved in the alleged contract scam in the Presidential Initiative in the Northeast.”

A document obtained last night revealed the areas to be clarified by Lawal, some companies and PINE officials. They are:

4. Why was Section 43(iii) and (iv) of the Public Procurement Act 2007 ignored by PINE?

5. Could it be true that all the contracts awarded by PINE had no direct bearing to the needs of the Internally Displaced Persons?

6. Who recommended the engagement of Rholavision Engineering Limited belonging to a then serving government official, Babachir Lawal?

7. Is it true that Rholavision was incorporated in 1990 to carry out ICT services instead of agro services?

8. Was Lawal a signatory to Rholavision’s account as at the time of the award of the consultancy contract? Was he a director of the same firm till September 2016 while in office as SGF?
