The Senate Public Accounts Committee has commenced investigation into the alleged sale of two Prado Jeeps worth N31 million at N1.5 million by officials of the Lake Chad Research Institute, Maiduguri, Borno State capital.
The committee made the discovery while scrutinising the 2015-2018 Auditor General’s report currently being treated by both chambers of the National Assembly. The report says the Prado jeeps were procured in 2013 and 2014, respectively but were sold three years after they were bought, at N750,000 only for each. The AuGF had issued a query based on the inability of the management of the institute to provide reasons for the sale of the jeeps at such a low price.
