The DG, Jonathan Jumah in his response said the mistake was indicating the vehicle type in the document, arguing that the vehicles were meant for project monitoring and that the Institute could decide to change the type and specification to SUVs. The lawmaker urged the DG to adhere strictly to the principles of federal character in recruiting staff for the Institute, noting that a look at the nominal roll suggests otherwise.
“We hope that the ministry of Budget and National Planning will accept to fund the recruitment that’s currently needed”, he said. “It’s not enough for you to come here and tell us you spent N20m, N50m and N100m on items and you expect us to look at them I say okay. We have to see evidence of procurement by way of supporting documents, and we must have that before we can consider your requests for 2019”, he said.
