He said that another N500m was approved for the Office of the Accountant General of the Federation to enable it to pay overtime to the workers that handled the payment of terminal benefits to the PHCN employees. Okoh said, “The National Council on Privatisation at its meeting held on Thursday, May 9, 2013 considered and approved the award of a contract to Messrs J. K. Gadzama & Partners as the consultant, legal advisory services for the winding up of PHCN Plc in the sum of N929,613,188.94 only for a period of six months after obtaining a BPP ‘no objection’.

“The Office of Attorney General had earlier objected to the necessity of the procurement, but later withdrew its objection and endorsed the engagement of Messrs J. K. Gadzama & Partners for the legal advisory services vide a letter presented to the NCP ref: HAGF/BPP/2014/Vol.1, dated 17th of September 2014.
