suffered from Tin Mining Activities and were littered with Mining Ponds, which caused many erosion problems depriving certain Communities access to Jos City. He discussed extensively about the problems experienced in the Semurumba Area of Jos, stating that the Pond was reclaimed in 2004 by the Defendant, who had visited the place, and had intervened promptly, making the People happy. The Defendant, as Governor also intervened by doing Stone Works, built Bridges at Laminga Dam, Reclaiming other Areas and also engaged in other Minor Works. He could not tell where the Funds for these Projects came from. Under Cross-Examination, he was grateful to the Defendant and his Community for recommending him as Chairman, removing him from Classroom Work. He never knew how the Erosion Contracts were financed, as he did not work at the Plateau State Ministry of Works, where the Contracts were awarded. He was equally not aware whether these Projects were captured in the Plateau State Government. He stated that Statutory Allocations goes to the Statutory Accounts of the Local Governments and in this case, Lobbying was only used to influence people and did not include Bribe. DW12, Israel Dabel currently a Lecturer at the Theological College testified that prior to his retirement, he had worked in the Engineering Department of Plateau Radio and Television Corporation (PRTV) in Plateau State. Pinnacle Communications Limited, a Successful Bidder, supplied the PRTV with New Radio and Television Equipment. He met the Chief Executive of Pinnacle, because he supplied their Transmitter Equipment from Harris UK. The Team of Engineers had earlier in August 2001, inspected the Equipment, most of which were Television Transmitters and One Radio Transmitter, at Harris Factory in Oxford United Kingdom. He named the Members of the Visitation Team and added that the Defendant was the Governor at that time. They achieved their purpose and were satisfied with what they saw. A subsequent visit took place in December 2002 and this time, their Mission was to see the Equipment again after Production was completed and all these were at the insistence of the Chief Executive of Pinnacle Communications. Whilst at Oxford, they were informed that Plateau State Government should finish payment before the Equipment would be shipped to Nigeria. On their return, a Report was written urging the Governor to pay, so that the Contractor would ship the Broadcast Equipment. He testified that subsequently, Pinnacle Communications brought in the Equipment piecemeal and they were delivered to the PRTV. Yet again, this Witness together with Team of Engineers inspected the Equipment brought in Five (5) Number 40 Foot Containers. The Equipment delivered were checked against their Checklist, and a Few Minor Equipment were not delivered till he retired. After receiving this Equipment, nothing could be done by them because they were yet to be installed and he could only say that the AM Radio at Mianto was installed and tested. According to him, Pinnacle was not the only Contractor who bidded for the Contract but won because its Cost was moderate and because of the good reputation of Harris. The Ministry of Information as Supervising Ministry of the PRTV was the Awarding Ministry of this Contract. He could not remember the Contract Sum and stated that he and his Team had nothing to do with the Financial Aspects of any Contract concerning PRTV or any Financial Issues. Under Cross-Examination, he stated that he was a Member of Council of Registered Engineers in Nigeria (COREN) but not a Member of Nigerian Society of Engineers (NSE). He stated that a Replacement was sought when the Equipment in use started malfunctioning in the Year 2000 and was not sure whether the Replacement was reflected in the Budget of that Year or any other Year. As Director in a Government Corporation, he was not aware of Funds being allocated for any purpose 87
