The Senate committee on the Federal Capital Territory said yesterday that it will soon begin an investigation into all the issues relating to the Concession and privatization of some government property in the Federal Capital Territory to the tune of N2.7 billion from the two last administrations.
The Senator Dino Melaye-led comminittee described the entire process as a national disaster and leadership failure.
The committee lamented that in spite of the barrage of investments in the territory, the revenue portion on these investments stood at zero over the years since 2008.
The Senate committee said it would summon all the key players in the past governments that were responsible for the concession and privatization of these property to private individuals in the nation’s capital city.
Melaye spoke yesterday when the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory Administration, FCTA, Malam Muhammad Musa Bello and the entire leadership appeared before the senate committee.
Melaye said the Committee would expose all those involved, even when it amounts to exhuming corpses of those that are dead.
The concession and privatization of these government property were done during former Presidents Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan, under Nasir El- Rufai, Dr. Aliyu Modibbo Umar; Senator Bala Mohammed, among others.
