SERAP Urges EFCC, ICPC, CCB To Probe NMDPRA Boss Farouk Ahmed Over Alleged Licence Abuse, $5m Foreign School Fees
The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) has asked Nigeria’s anti-corruption agencies—the EFCC, ICPC, and Code of Conduct Bureau—to urgently investigate allegations against the Chief Executive of the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA), Engr. Farouk Ahmed. The call follows claims that the agency arbitrarily issued petroleum import licences and that its head spent about $5 million on foreign education for his children. SERAP said a probe would strengthen transparency and accountability in the management of Nigeria’s oil sector and urged the Tinubu administration to protect Aliko Dangote as a whistleblower under the UN Convention against Corruption.
