The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) has confirmed the successful execution of motorised borehole projects valued at over N54.7 million in Ondo State, declaring the facilities completed and fully functional.
The projects were implemented by the National Primary Health Care Development Agency (NPHCDA) and monitored under the Commission’s Constituency and Executive Projects Tracking Initiative (CEPTI), designed to ensure transparency and accountability in the execution of public-funded projects nationwide.
In a statement signed by its spokesperson, Oko Ode, the Commission disclosed that the contract for the drilling of the motorised boreholes was awarded in November 2024 to Workman Network and Equipment Resources Ltd.
“The Commission’s monitoring teams, working in collaboration with project consultants and officials of the NPHCDA, physically verified the execution of the projects and confirmed that the boreholes have been completed in accordance with approved specifications,” the statement read.
The boreholes were installed at Basic Health Care Danjuma in Akure South Local Government Area; Basic Health Care Awai’e in Ile-Oluji, Ile-Oluji/Okeigbo Local Government Area; and BOA II Primary Health Care Centre in Akoko South West Local Government Area.
According to the ICPC, all three facilities are now supplying clean and potable water to the health centres and neighbouring communities.
“At the Ile-Oluji facility, the officer in charge commended the quality of work delivered, noting that the project has resolved long-standing water challenges and significantly improved service delivery at the centre,” the statement added.
The Commission emphasised that the tracking exercise forms part of its broader mandate to ensure that public funds are not diverted and that government projects translate into measurable benefits for citizens.
Reiterating its commitment to accountability, the ICPC stated, “The Commission remains resolute in ensuring transparency, accountability and value for money in public projects and urges Nigerians to continue to provide credible information to support ongoing monitoring efforts.”
