The Inspector of Special Investigation Unit (SIU) has quizzed the chairman of Omala Local Government Area of Kogi State, Alih Ajuh, and a bank manager in Lokoja over N100 million fraud.
According to police sources, the chairman was quizzed, following allegations by Omala Elders Association, alledging that the chairman, instead of using the funds allocated to the local government to deliver dividends of democracy to the people, used his official position to loot, steal, embezzle and gratify persons with the funds.
Particulars of corrupt practices alleged that Mrs Ajumah Tabita Ajuh, wife of the chairman, was retrenched from the services of Omala Local Government in 2003 but in 2008 when her husband was made the caretaker chairman of the local government, without compliance with due process and technocrat inputs singlehandedly paid the wife a whopping sum of N1.4million.
