The Zamfara state chairman of the Nigeria Labor Congress NLC, Comrade Comrade Sani Halliru has been reported to have allocated plots of land which was given to some of the unions members, politicians, Associations among others in the state by governor Bello Mohammed Matawalle to his members.
Finding by Hotpen gathered that governor Bello Mohammed Matawalle has approved over 100 plots of land to politicians, associations and other relavant unions early last February .
The state government had constituted a committee on the matter where the embattle NLC chairman was among the committee to share the allocation among the beneficiaries but diverted the allocation to majority of his members.
According to source in the state ministry of land and housing who pleaded anonymity told journalists that no official from the ministry was appointed to be even member of the plots allocation committee.
According to him, the ministry was given six plots out of the said over 100 allocated by the state governor Bello Mohammed Matawalle.
“It is unfortunate that majority of the plots was allocated to NLC members without considering other unions and we at the ministry level have no single member to serve as the committee member”. The source said .
However, efforts to see the NLC chairman on the matter proved abortive as at the time of compiling the report by our Correspondent.
