Hardened Criminal: Director General of Kebbi Investment Promotion Agency, Kabiru Kamba Mohammed Diverts Over ₦1.5 Billion To Self



Kabiru Kamba Mohammed, a prominent politician from Kamba, Kebbi State, Nigeria, currently serves as the Director General of the Kebbi Investment Promotion Agency (KIPA) since July 2023. Prior to this, he held various significant positions, including as the Technical Adviser on Entrepreneurship and Industrialization to the Government of Kebbi State (2021-2023) and as a representative of the Union of Good Governance Advocates from 2017 to date.  


However, records on Govspend have exposed that his offices have been exploited to facilitate financial misconduct, specifically in securing questionable federal government contracts through his involvement with Workable Global Synergy Ltd. 


Records on Govspend indicate that Kabiru Kamba Mohammed may have abused his office to siphon public funds through Workable Global Synergy Ltd, a company incorporated in Abuja with registration number 1536804.  


Our investigation revealed that that between 2021 and 2023, Mohammed’s company, Workable Global Synergy Ltd received one billion, five hundred and twenty five million, one hundred and ninety one thousand, four hundred and twenty nine naira and forty seven kobo (1,525,191,420.70) as payments for contracts.  


According to the data, the contracts were awarded by federal coy such as Federal Ministry of Works And Housing, National Social Investment Office Transferred, Federal Ministry of Health, National productivity Centre, among others.  


Examples of transactions include: 


On the 19th of January 2021, as records have it on govspend, the federal ministry of works and housing allotted the sum of N34,948,171.10 to Workable Global Synergy Ltd “as payment for the supply of 89nos motorcycles Baja’s model, at kazaure Jigawa state.” 


On the 21st of January 2021, another reasonable sum of N87,235,172.65 left the federal ministry of works and housing’s account To Workable Global Synergy Ltd as “payment for the supply of 769nos industrial sewing machines.” 


Looking further, findings show that on 22nd of January 2022, Workable Global Synergy Ltd yet again, was credited with N86,068,122.06 “Being payment for the supply and fix of 101nos in barbing and hair dressing equipment in ogo-oluwa, Oyo state.” 


Fast forward to 5th April 2023, the National Social Investment Office transferred the sum of N73,250,574.85 to Workable Global Synergy Ltd, “being payment for the supply of utensils to 146,300 pupils for the nhgsfp in Osun, Ondo, and Oyo states.”  


Two days later, Workable Global Synergy Ltd received an alert of N150,294,562.00 from National productivity Centre, as “payment of 100% job sum, after 2.5% admin fee and 30% mobilization fee for lot w61: provision of 250 nos of solar streetlights across Nasarawa west senatorial district.” 


Records shown, reveals that workable global synergy Ltd was incorporated in Abuja, Nigeria with registration number 1536804. It was registered on 26 October 2018 and its current status is active. The company’s registered office address is Flat 3 Block B off Kano Close Area 11 Garki, AbUJA. 


These transactions raise serious ethical concerns as they contradict Nigeria’s constitutional provisions on public officers. The Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB), under the Nigerian Constitution of 1999 (as amended), explicitly prohibits full-time public servants from managing or running private businesses, except in farming. Mohammed’s involvement with Workable Global Synergy Ltd, a private enterprise, while holding public office, constitutes a clear breach of these laws, warranting thorough investigation by anti-corruption agencies.
