National Sports Commission Spent 1.2 M to Open Facebook Account

 
Well, well, wee!!! Werrin we no go hear for obodo Naija ehn

The Director General of the National Sports Commission (NSC), Chief Patrick Ekeji is reportedly being summoned by the House of Representatives over the Commission’s expenditures, including N1.2 million for a Facebook account.

According to the Nigerian Tribune, an investigation panel has been set up by the House of Representatives over allegations of financial misappropriation and abuse of office, where Chief Ekeji would explain how the N3.7 billion that was advanced to the Commission for the 10th All Africa Games held in Maputo in 2011 was expended.

Chief Ekeji is expected to defend how he transferred monies to 19 sports federation; N1,200,000.00 (One million, two hundred thousand naira) used in opening Facebook account for the National Sport Commission; N182, 124, 179,000.00 used in rehabilitating the National Stadium in Lagos, and another N117,875,820.95 used in rehabilitating the Obafemi Awolowo Stadium (Liberty Stadium) Ibadan. Ekeji will also provide warrant of approval by President Goodluck Jonathan for him to expend the sum of N350,000,000.00 from the yet to be approved 2012 Budget for the London 2012 Olympic Game.

The said Facebook account of the National Sports Commission currently has about 5000 fans and doesn’t look like anything bought for N1.2 million (about $8000).
