Nigerian Tribune – On Wednesday June 18, 2014, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) will officially open investigation into the moribund $475 million (N76 billion) CCTV pilot project, designed to help Nigeria shore-up her security. While Nigerians lament the alleged shoddy and inadequate delivery on the project which was designed to cover Abuja, where the Boko Haram insurgency had been tragically-pronounced and other places like Lagos, Ibadan, Bayelsa, Kaduna and Kano, with taste of the insurgency and deep rumour of it, a human right lawyer, Mr. Olugbenga Adeyemi, is spearheading the move to get to the root of the obviously-challenged project, petitioning the anti-corruption agency, for probe and prosecution of those found to be responsible for the execution of the project, awarded to a Chinese firm, ZTE, which has obviously been of no effect in the fight against insurgency.
