EFCC, ICPC Asked To Probe N296.4million Imo State Funds Allegedly Spent On CBT Centre In Private Varsity

According to the group, the facility, equipped with 40 HP laptops, was commissioned in November 2025 at Claretian University, a private institution.

A civil society organisation, Tracka, has called on the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) to investigate the construction and equipping of a N296.4million Information and Communication Technology/Computer-Based Test (ICT/CBT) Centre at Claretian University in Imo State.

Tracka raised questions over the use of public funds for the project, which was executed at the private university, despite what it described as infrastructure and service-delivery challenges affecting public institutions across the state.

According to the group, the facility, equipped with 40 HP laptops, was commissioned in November 2025 at Claretian University, a private institution.

Tracka said the project was funded with N296.4million in public funds under a constituency project facilitated by Senator Ezenwa Onyewuchi, who represents Imo East Senatorial District.
