“Others are various financing allocation funding contracts with the NOCs valued over $3 billion as well as various NPDC production service contracts valued at over $3 billion to $4 billion”.
The NNPC however, dismissed the allegations, maintaining that it followed due process in awarding contracts and also said Kachikwu’s consent was not needed in the award of the contracts which he complained about.
