The African Centre for Media and Information Literacy has asked for investigation into the alleged procurement of substandard equipment totalling N11,000,000,000.00 by the management of the Nigeria Police Trust Fund .
"AFRICMIL is following developments in this matter and expresses huge support for ICPC in this monumental task. In line with the Commission’s customary adherence to professionalism, we urge a thorough, painstaking and dispassionate engagement with all the issues surrounding the controversial management of the Trust Fund.
The statement further noted, “There is no doubt that ICPC will find out that the firm disregard for due process by the Executive Secretary is at the heart of the procurement of poor-quality security equipment and machinery for the Nigeria Police Force which has outraged many people across the country, including the Inspector of General of Police.
"ICPC should be interested in investigating what the sum of N722,671,942 out of the N1, 616,883,668 released as takeoff grant for the secretariat of the Trust Fund was used for. This amount was said to have been spent within five months even as accommodation and other necessary equipment had been provided free by the Nigeria Police Force.
