In the aftermath of the suspension of the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, attention has shifted to the money trail, leading to another government official.

New Planet Project Limited, owned by Minister for Interior Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, received a hefty contract of N438.1 million for the dubious National Social Register project. This contract aimed to verify 11 million homes in Nigeria within just one month. Curiously, other beneficiaries include Fabunmi Olanipeku & Co, an accounting firm allegedly linked to APC Attorney Wole Olanipekun’s brother, receiving N419.5 million. Vintsolve Global Consult, without clear registration records, obtained N558.8 million.

Blue Trend Enterprise, with an unknown owner and no registration, secured N277.8 million. Periscope Consulting, owned by Ngozi Maureen Ojiego, known for interior decoration, received N277 million. Laitop Dynamics Interlink Services Ltd, owned by Quburat Bolanle Bolanta, registered on June 6, 2016, got N277 million. Memak Nigeria Limited, with no known ownership or registration date, was awarded N277 million. MC Van Management Consult Limited and Danzinger Nigeria Limited, both lacking clear registration records, received contracts of N275.8 million each.

Shockingly, all contractors claimed to have verified 11 million homes in Nigeria within a month, raising eyebrows about the legitimacy of these transactions.

Truth Live News gathered that the revelation of these substantial contracts raises concerns about transparency and accountability within government procurement processes. The alleged connections between contractors and influential figures bring the integrity of the entire operation into question. The public demands a thorough investigation to determine the veracity of these claims and hold those responsible accountable for their actions.

As this scandal unfolds, it is baffling that two of the most performing ministers are being fingered in such a case. The public waits to see what would become of this scandal
