Prosecutors allege that Ngige exploited his position to award inflated contracts worth N2,261,722,535.84 to companies linked to his associates, cronies, and relatives, bypassing due process and splitting contracts to evade competitive bidding.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Some of the key allegations include: \u201cApproving seven NSITF contracts for consultancy, training, and supplies totaling N366,470,920.68 to Cezimo Nigeria Limited, a firm connected to his associate Ezebinma Amarachukwu Charles.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cInfluencing eight contracts valued at N362,043,163.16 (and an additional N583,682,686 in related awards) to Jeff &amp; Xris Limited, led by Ngige&#8217;s alleged alter ego, Nwosu Chukwunwike.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cFacilitating four contracts worth N668,138,141 to Olde English Consolidated Limited.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cAwarding four more contracts totaling N161,604,625 to Shale Atlantic Intercontinental Services Limited, owned by another associate, Uzoma Igbonwa\u201d.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">The EFCC further accused Ngige of receiving corrupt gratification between May and June 2022, including N38.65 million funneled through his campaign organization from Cezimo Nigeria Limited, N55 million via his scholarship scheme from Zitacom Nigeria Limited, and N26.13 million from Jeff &amp; Xris Limited. These acts, the commission said, contravene Section 19 of the Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Act, 2000.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Following Ngige&#8217;s not guilty plea, his counsel requested bail, citing his age and health concerns. The EFCC prosecutor did not oppose but urged the court to impose stringent conditions.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Justice Hassan adjourned the matter to December 19 for ruling on the bail application and fixed February 10, 2026, for the start of trial.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">The arraignment comes days after Ngige&#8217;s dramatic detention by the EFCC on Wednesday night, December 10, which sparked unfounded kidnapping rumors.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">His media aide, Fred Chukwuelobe, quickly clarified on Thursday that the former minister was in agency custody for questioning, dispelling social media speculation.<\/div>\n<div id=\"m_7017237947322430509ymail_android_signature\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Myke Agunwa The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Friday arraigned Dr. Chris Ngige, former Minister of Labour and Employment, before Justice Mariam Hassan at the Federal Capital&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":92612,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-124388","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
