Ex-Kogi United Chairman Adama Returns #0.5m Wrongfully Paid April Salary To Government Coffers

Former Chairman of Kogi United and Confluence Queens, Hon Abdul Adama has returned #0.5m wrongfully paid into his account back to the state government.


The young administrator, who also served as Special Adviser to the Governor of Kogi State on Public Private Partnership, returned the money to the office of the Secretary to the State Government on Friday in Lokoja.

Mallam Adama had on 1st April 2015 resigned his appointment as Special Adviser and Chairman of the darling football teams of the state for personal reasons.

A staff at the SSG's office that confirmed the patriotic return of post-resignation salary saluted Adama's sincerity and equally enjoined former appointees and retired civil servants to emulate the brilliant administrator.

He stated that Adama's gesture in this era of economic hardship suggests that there are still ''good Nigerians''.

Adama challenged the Secretary to the State Governmeny to immediately conduct an audit to see how many other retired political officers in the state are still living off the state purse.
