was waiting for a Letter of Award of the Contract. These Set of Facts in this Letter, appear not to show any relationship or connection or relevance to the Documents leading up to the Award of Contract dated the 5th of June 2001. This Exhibit D25, as presented by the Defence, had neither a Head nor Tail. It appears to be a Stranger among the Lot presented before the Court. It is more like a Single White Sheep amongst a Herd of Black Sheep. This Exhibit appears lost, and perhaps wonders what it is doing under the gaze of the Court. It’s Purpose, could only mean that the Secretary to the State Government was in another Contract with Pinnacle Communications Limited regarding the Purchase, Supply, Installation and Commissioning of Equipment for the benefit of the PRTV and definitely, not for the Upgrading of PRTV’s Television and AM and FM Radio Stations. The set of circumstances that remain constant throughout the Documentary Exhibits is the fact that the Communications were strictly between the General Manager of PRTV and the Executive Governor, Chief Joshua Chibi Dariye, the Defendant. During Trial, the Defendant chose to keep himself away from the Witness Box, Mr. Lucky Omoluwa the Chairman/Chief Executive of Pinnacle Communications or its Representative were not called or summoned to testify, either by the Defence or most importantly by the Prosecution, and further, the General Manager of the PRTV, Mr. Joseph Ari was also not called or summoned by the Defence. Starting off with the General Manager of the PRTV, his evidence was crucial as his name featured throughout the Exhibits, which establishes a Trail of Communications between himself and the Defendant. He also would have explained in great detail the involvement of the State Tenders Board in the Award of the Contract, as well as explained the Process that led to the whittling down of the Quotation initially presented by Pinnacle Communications Limited, in its Executive Report and Quotation. Most importantly, he is presumed to have knowledge on the Source of Funds for the Contract, as the Purchase of the Upgrading of the PRTV Television and Radio Station as well as the Request of Payment ended up on his desk. DW12, Mr. Israel Dabel, the Director of Engineering of the PRTV, during his testimony, stated that he was not aware of the Funds Allocated for the Purchase of the Upgrading of the PRTV Station, he also was not aware of the Amount paid by the Plateau State Government or knew the Procedure of Payment to the Contractor, and he finally, did not know any Financial Aspects of the PRTV Contract. The Court observes from his testimony that it does not tally with the Documentary Exhibits considered by the Court, when he stated that a “Team” and mentioned the names of the Team Members that visited the Harris’ Factory in the United Kingdom. Meanwhile, the Visit for Inspection and Training at Harris Factory, only involved himself, as Director of Engineering and Mr. Joseph Ari, the General Manager.The fact that they visited Harris UK was fully captured in the Approved Estacode Allowances contained in Exhibits D27, written by the Secretary to the State Government, Mr. Ezekiel Gomos, on the 8th of August 2001. The Court further notes that the Estacode was paid by the Plateau State Government and not by Pinnacle Communications Limited, the Contractor, who had earlier in the Executive Report and Quotation stated that the Contractor would be responsible for this Visit, Inspection and Training of Two Officials at Harris Factory in the United Kingdom. 150
