APC speaks on fertilizer heist in Zamfara state
Photo credit: @MvnaaaSource: TwitterAPC: How Zamfara govt bought 75 trailer loads of fertilizer with N38.5bn “While the party gave a different figure of the fertilizer bought by the government, the governor also gave a varying one.”We calculated that at N38.5 billion, the government purchased it at a stupendous N855,000 per bag because 38,500,000,000 if divided into 75 trailers it will be that the government purchased each trailer at the cost of N513,000,000 which will give a price of each bag costing N855,000 and giving monumental contract inflation.APC alleges discrepancies in number of fertilizer trailers bought”However, if it goes according to the statement or the PDP rejoinder that on the 17th of June, 2024 the Zamfara State executive council approved the procurement of 120 trucks of fertilizer at the cost of N38,500,000,000 if divided into 120 trailers, it means that each trailer was purchased at the cost N320,000,000 and each bag cost Zamfara State government N534,722 Naira which is also outrageous.”Group gives Zamfara gov Lawal 48hrs to resign
