The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, an anti-graft agency, has been tasked by the pro-democracy and civil rights advocacy group HUMAN RIGHTS WRITERS ASSOCIATION OF NIGERIA (HURIWA) to look into the mysterious fire that broke out this morning at the Federation’s Head of Service’s offices. The Rights group has also challenged the EFCC and ICPC to look into the Ministry of Finance and the Federation’s Accountant General to find out where the trillions of Naira intended for capital components of Federal ministries over the past two years.
“Refusal to fund capital budgets by this federal administration is not just a new kind of sophisticated economic and financial crimes but constitutes a crime against humanity given that hundreds of impoverished Nigerians have been left to die from treatable diseases like malaria due to lack of medication at primary health care centers run by the federal ministry of health, which received only N36 million out of the over N230 billion approved for capital budget in 2025,” stated Comrade Emmanuel Nnadozie Onwubiko, the National Assembly.
“Why are there fires all the time in strategic ministries and government agencies since 2015 till date and unfortunately there has been no determination of the causes of such mysterious fires in places like the Corporate Affairs Commission and offices of the Accountant General of the Federation which occurred during the Muhammadu Buhari’s highly corrupt federal administration?” was another question raised in response to the frequent fire outbreaks in government offices, particularly in the finance departments of such government institutions, which HURIWA attributes to sabotage by politicians? There have been suspicious fires at key offices since Tinubu’s administration took office, particularly in offices that hold procurement-related documents. It is now the turn of the Federation’s Head of Service. What office comes next?
HURIWA also chastised the EFCC and the ICPC for keeping quiet about President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s startling inability to finance capital projects since taking office. In the same way that HURIWA classified the inability to cashback capital components of budgets as major economic crimes, we are informed every year that appropriations bills are passed into law and the government borrows money from various sources to fund the budgets.
“The public is frequently inundated with announcements from Nigerian Customs and numerous other heavily revenue-generating institutions that they have met or exceeded their annual targets, which amount to trillions of Naira. The budget is financed by loans obtained from the federal government. Why, therefore, are the capital components of the budgets not being implemented? This is a serious financial crime, but the EFCC acts as though it is unimportant to them. The EFCC and ICPC act like President Tinubu’s “boys scouts” or “boys brigade,” despite the National Assembly’s exposure of these heists.
HURIWA recalled that on February 25, 2026, Mr. Alex Mascot Ikwechegh, a member of the Federal House of Representatives representing the Aba North/Aba South Federal Constituency and a prominent member of the Aids and Loans Committee, confronted Wale Edun, the Minister of Finance, regarding the mysterious disappearance of capital project funds despite record-breaking revenues and trillions of naira in loans.
When Representative Ikwechegh disclosed a troubling pattern, what started out as a standard budget defense swiftly turned into a high-stakes interrogation, according to observers:
According to Hon. Ikwechegh, the National Assembly has expressly earmarked N1.15 trillion to finance 30% of the capital budget for 2025.
Hon. Ikwechegh went on to say that several loans had been obtained, including $1.2 billion for digital infrastructure, $500 million for economic stimulus, $500 million for MSMEs (approved in December 2025), $500 million for economic governance and energy transition from the African Development Bank (approved in November 2025), and a recent executive request for $21 million, 15 billion Yen, and 4 billion Euros.
Hon. Ikwechegh questioned why capital projects in Nigeria continue to receive no funding despite this flood of borrowed funds and the excellent income performance of organizations like FIRS, Customs, and others.
With evident frustration, Hon. Ikwechegh skillfully guided the Minister through the numbers, asking, “With all these funds put together, I want you to enlighten us on why the 2024 budget is yet to be fully implemented and why the 2025 budget has only been funded 34%—most of which is recurrent expenditure?”
The minister was asked by Hon. Ikwechegh to provide more information about why our capital projects are still at zero.
When asked, Minister Wale Edun claimed that Doris Uzoka-Anite, the Minister of State for Finance, was in charge of payments.
Members of the committee were enraged by this diversion and questioned, “Who can account for ₦1.15 trillion approved for capital projects if the substantive Minister of Finance cannot?”
Demanding answers, lawmakers yelled at the seated committee. The ministers’ resignation was demanded by some. In order to provide the country the certainty it needs, the committee was forced to postpone the hearing until Thursday, February 26th, and summon the Minister of State.
Following the committee meeting, Hon. Ikwechegh told the media that “development stops when capital project funding is at zero.” Nigerians suffer when development halts.
Doris Uzoka-Anite, the Minister of State for Finance, stated that ₦1.15 trillion had been granted for capital projects during the resumed hearing on Thursday. Uzoka-Anite was called to account for the missing ₦1.15 trillion. She did, however, disclose that some “pre-disbursement conditions” had not been fulfilled by certain ministries and that disbursement protocols require numerous sign-offs.
She maintained that even while the money is there, it cannot be disbursed until the project’s paperwork is finished.
Armed with the Health Minister’s prior evidence that he only received ₦38 million of his ₦286 billion allotment, committee members demanded to know why certain ministries were given the runaround while others weren’t if protocols were the problem.
“Mr. Chairman, can the minister tell this committee which specific ministry met all conditions and yet did not receive funding?” Hon. Ikwechegh stood up once more. Why was ₦1.15 trillion granted while the government was aware that conditions weren’t met if none existed?
The minister was unable to give even one example. Then Hon. Ikwechegh said, “Where are the capital funds if they were approved?”
Who is in charge if they were misappropriated?
Who will be responsible if this is a crime?
The committee was reminded by Hon. Alex Mascot Ikwechegh that it is not poor administration if funds were approved but never made it to their intended recipient. It’s illegal.
President Tinubu invited Hon. Ikwechegh to Aso Rock on February 27, 2026, for a private meeting.
Following his meeting with the president, Hon. Ikwechegh declared his decision to join the APC and resigned from the APGA.
Hon. Alex Mascot Ikwechegh is in our thoughts.
Therefore, in order to track down the precise location of the capital components of budgets, HURIWA has urged the two anti-corruption agencies, the EFCC and ICPC, to awaken from government-controlled inactivity and operational slumber and conduct investigations and detain officials of the relevant government agencies.
Through National Coordinator Comrade Emmanuel Nnadozie Onwubiko, the Rights group denounced the federal government for depriving strategic ministries like Health, Education, Water Resources, Agricultural Resources, Women and Children Ministry, Humanitarian Affairs, and poverty reduction agencies of essential funding for their successful and efficient services of the welfare and well-being of Nigeria’s good people. “While Tinubu travels the world and bravely attends conferences intended for high school students, his administration deprives public hospitals of the money they need to purchase necessities like medicine to properly treat impoverished individuals.
In reference to the fire at the Head of Service office, HURIWA concluded by noting that Section C of the Office of the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation building was affected by the fire that started at the Federal Secretariat in Abuja on Monday morning. Staff evacuation and emergency reaction were prompted when the fire was initially discovered at 8:20 a.m., with dense smoke rising from the building. Authorities have roped off the area, redirecting traffic close to the Federal Court of Appeal, and firefighters are on the scene. The source of the incident is yet unknown, and there have been no confirmed casualties.
