Founder of Coscharis Group, Dr. Cosmas Maduka, has alleged that a former governor of Plateau State once asked his company to inflate the invoice for vehicles supplied to the state government.

Maduka claimed that vehicles valued at about N40 million were expected to be invoiced at N80 million as part of the transaction.

The businessman raised questions about the alleged practice, asking whether any senator or member of the House of Representatives had ever approached his company to purchase vehicles under similar circumstances.

Maduka’s comments have renewed concerns about transparency and accountability in public procurement, particularly in government vehicle purchases and other high-value contracts.

However, the allegation remains a claim by Maduka and has not been independently established. The identity of the former Plateau State governor involved was not stated in the account, and the former governor’s response to the allegation was not immediately available.

If substantiated, such an arrangement could raise serious questions about procurement procedures, pricing and the management of public funds.
