One of the sources in Maiduguri said, ”The contract issue is against the law of civil service which prohibits public office holders from engaging in any type of business relating to the office he or she is holding.”
It was also gathered that there are petitions against the Borno State Secretary to the State Government, Baba Ahmed Jidda, and Chief of staff to the Borno State Governor, Alhaji Abubakar Kyari, over properties and estates they reportedly acquired in Abuja.
