EFCC, ICPC Asked To Probe Nigerian Agricultural Land Development Authority Over ₦2billion Budget For Bush Clearing.
Civic accountability group MonITng has raised alarm over a ₦2billion allocation in the 2025 federal budget for land and bush clearing under the National Agricultural Land Development Authority (NALDA).
The organisation described the project—listed under the Presidency—as a waste of public funds, citing its vague description and lack of specified locations. MonITng argued that such ambiguity opens the door for corruption and mismanagement, stressing that the funds could be better invested in mechanisation, irrigation, storage facilities, or rural roads.
Calling the allocation a “padded project,” the group urged anti-graft agencies including the EFCC and ICPC, as well as the National Assembly, to investigate and ensure accountability.
