| Goodluck Jonathan's 2015 Presidential Election campaign posters |
The
Managing Director of Paste Poster Company Limited, Mr. Olusegun Idowu,
says his company is still being owed N24m for the printing of
ex-President Goodluck Jonathan’s campaign posters for the 2015
presidential election.
The N24m,
Idowu said, was part of a total of N54m poster pasting and consultancy
jobs that his company did for the Goodluck Jonathan Campaign
Organisation in the build-up to the last general elections.
Idowu
said his company was paid N30m cash in tranches of N6m and N24m for
consultancy and printing of the ex-President’s campaign posters, while
another N24m remained unpaid till date.
The media
consultant stated this on Wednesday when he appeared before the Federal
High Court in Lagos, where the then Director of Media and Publicity of
the Goodluck Jonathan Campaign Organisation, Femi Fani-Kayode, is being
prosecuted for an alleged fraud of N4.9bn.
Standing
trial along with Fani-Kayode for the alleged fraud relating to
Jonathan’s campaign, is a former Minister of State for Finance, Nenadi
Usman.
The third and fourth defendants in the case are one Danjuma Yusuf and a company, Joint Trust Dimensions Limited.
The
defendants were arraigned before Justice Rilwan Aikawa on 17 counts
bordering on conspiracy, unlawful retention of proceeds of theft and
money laundering.
They, however, pleaded not guilty to the charges.
