EXCLUSIVE: How Zamfara Governor, Matawalle Paid N118Million To Company Linked To Former Campaign Director, Jamilu Zannah For Abandoned Governor’s Lodge ProjectOne of the companies awarded multi-billion-naira projects by the outgoing Zamfara State Governor, Bello Mohammed for the construction of governor's lodges across the 14 local government areas of the state, has been linked with Jamilu Zannah, SaharaReporters’ investigation has revealed.
SaharaReporters’ investigation revealed that Zannah Kachalla World Link was registered on July 7, 2014, with RC number: 1205042 and has Jamilu Aliyu Zannah, and some of his relatives who were identified as Khadiza Jamilu Zannah, Aliyu Jamilu and Umar Muhammad as its directors. The amount earmarked and released for each local government area differs, and the projects were shared among different contractors for execution.
This implies that the Zamfara government violated the Public Procurement Act of 2007 by awarding the contract to Zannah Kachalla World Link, a company owned by a former campaign director for the state governor whose influence would affect fairness during the bidding and overall procurement process for the project.
When SaharaReporters called the Director General of the Zamfara State Bureau of Public Procurement, Maiharaji Altine Gusau, to get his reaction to our findings, he blamed the state Finance and General Purpose Committee for the irregularities in the procurement processes. Investigation revealed that most of the contractors awarded the projects were connected directly or indirectly to the governor.
