The controversial clean cook stoves and wonder bags project, initiated by the GEJ administration, for rural women has been terminated. The Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Environment, Mrs Fatima Mede, said the German contractor who was given
3 months to supply 750,000 units of the stove and 18,000 wonder bags had failed on his part to deliver the items.

She noted that N5b had been released to the Ministry by the government out of which the contractor was paid N1.3billion. She urged Nigerians not to be apprehensive over the remaining N3.7b in the ministry’s coffers, which according to her remains untouched…… unless of course it decides to disappear by itself as is always d case…..
