EXCLUSIVE: Workers Accuse MD Of Hydroelectric Power Producing Areas Development Commission Of Multi-Billion-Naira Fraud, Job RacketeeringThey also accused the managing director of financial fraud and job racketeering running into billions of naira.Staff members of the Hydroelectric Power Producing Areas Development Commission have accused its Managing Director, Abubakar Yelwa of turning the agency into a private estate, undermining its operational effectiveness.
One of the workers, who spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of victimisation, alleged that Yelwa and the Board Chairman have formed a dangerous collaboration with contractors to defraud the commission. Another source at the agency alleged that contracts are sold by agents of the MD who will not carry them out but get full payments afterwards.
Another staffer of the agency also corroborated this. He stated that the MD had turned the recruitment of workers into an avenue to bring in family and friends at the detriment of other qualified people under the operational mandate of the commission. “Apart from the lopsided employment of people from Kebbi state, where the MD hails from, employment slots are in the market to the highest bidders. A grade level 7 position in HYPADEC is sold in the open market for two million naira. Anything higher is considered a special arrangement where some agents of the MD would negotiate with prospective job seekers,” the worker added.
