The Senate
will today begin an inquest into alleged mismanagement of funds appropriated to
the power sector from the Olusegun Obasanjo civilian administration to date.
In a
statement, yesterday, by the Clerk of Senate ad hoc Committee on Power, Cletus
Ojabo, the power sector probe will be in the form of investigative
hearing/interactive session, just as there was an indication that former
ministers of power will also be in attendance.
According
to Ojabo, the investigation would centre
on funds appropriated for the power sector since 1999 and the unbundling of the
Power Holding Company of Nigeria, PHCN, adding: “ It is expected that all those
who played key roles in the power sector since 1999, including ministers and
heads of government departments and parastatals, will appear before the panel.”
