ICPC begins tracking of 105 constituency projects in Kano, Jigawa

The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) said it has commenced tracking of 105 federal lawmakers’ constituency projects in Kano and Jigawa States.

The Resident Commissioner in charge of the two states, Barrister Ahmad Muhammad Wada, disclosed this while briefing journalists in Kano on Monday.

He said the exercise is aimed at ensuring transparency, accountability, and preventing diversion of public funds allocated for constituency projects.

According to him, the commission will inspect 69 projects worth N17.8bn in Kano and 36 projects worth N19.7bn in Jigawa to verify whether they were executed in line with budgetary provisions, assess their quality, and determine their impact on communities.

“In sum, we are tracking a total of 105 projects valued at over N36bn and the exercise, which commenced on Saturday will take about two weeks,” Barrister Wada added.

He stressed that ICPC would not tolerate attempts to divert funds or implement projects only on paper without actual execution, noting that they will visit the scenes of all projects, whether completed or ongoing.

The commissioner urged citizens to cooperate by reporting any suspicions or complaints regarding constituency projects in their areas.
