He lamented a pushback against ongoing reforms at the agency by vested interests who were applying pressure with the hope that there would be some kind of change.
Salihijo cited the instance of a firm, Donnington Nigeria Limited, as behind a campaign of calumny that had targeted him and two other Executive Directors of the agency. The firm, in his case, he said, had maliciously misrepresented records at the CAC that made it look like he held the position of a director in Velocity Logistics & Marine Services Limited while at the same time being the boss of the REA, just to malign him.
He said, “For the Velocity story, for instance, where it was alleged that I breached the contract code. I have visibility on the document, that they had. What happened, is that those guys actually gave out the Memorandum and Article of Association which of course will have the directors on it. But what happens at the CAC is that once there is an update on directors, it doesn’t reflect on the Memorandum and Articles of Association but it reflects on the CAC Status report .
He also disclosed that he had discussed the infractions with the Registrar General of CAC, to address the gap, in order not to be exploited to malign innocent individuals.All rights reserved.
