A consortium of consulting firms, Mauritz Walton Nigeria Limited, and Bizplus Consulting Services Limited, has asked a High Court of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) to order the Enugu State Government to pay them the sum of N10.2billion being the debt owed them regarding the Paris Club refund.
The amount forms 20 per cent of the sum of N44. 4billion the firm helped the state to recover from the federal government.
According to the claimants, the debt arose as a result of the defendants failure to pay the claimants the agreed 20 percent of the sum of N44.4 billion, and consultancy fees for its role in the federal government’s refund of excess deductions in the Paris Club loans.
