Imo State Government has revealed that it foiled an attempt by some Indian contractors to cannibalise and cart away transformers meant for boosting power in the state.

This was disclosed in a statement issued, yesterday, by Oguwike Nawachukwu, Chief Press Secretary and Media Adviser to Governor Hope Uzodimma.

The statement explained that it was believed in some quarters that the contractors, that included Indians, must have come with the intention to steal the facilities, but only dropped NDPHC management’s name to get away with their ploy. The statement revealed that the contractors sneaked into the state, adding: “Worse was that the contractors secretly contacted some youths in Egbu, promising them tips to enable them move the equipment and cover up their tracks.
