Omotosho Benjamin, a human rights activist and a social commentator condemns the activities of faceless groups making allegations of financial infractions against the Clerk of the National Assembly
In 2018, driven by the need for Nigeria’s National Assembly to be at par with what is globally acceptable in parliamentary democracy, in terms of up to date internet connectivity, the then Clerk to the National Assembly, Barr. Ataba Sani-Omolori, hired Helios, Nanocom, and Cosynet as contractors to provide ‘lnternet Bandwidth Connectivity Upgrade’ for the nation’s highest legislative body.
Unknown to the former Clerk, by entrusting the provision of Internet Bandwidth Connectivity to the companies, he was making a costly mistake. The mindless and selfish breach of the contractual agreements that were later perpetrated gave credence to this.
