SP Ngurore, said that the CIO wrote on social media that Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri, through the Ministry of Education has been supporting the organisation financially but that their top officers have been diverting the money.
He said that the suspect had alleged that the top officers of the organisation have been using the allowances being given to the organisation by Governor Fintiri in enriching themselves at the detriment of the organisation.
He said that the officers have denied them their allowances including their men at the LGAs for about 4 years, and assured that he will try and see the Commissioner of Education or that of the Police Command in Adamawa State respectively and failure to see them, he will certainly hang himself at the Damilu Roundabout.
