The group alleged that despite full payment for the project, there is no evidence of execution at the school, raising concerns over possible mismanagement of public funds.
The project probe reflects growing calls for accountability in the handling of constituency and intervention projects across Nigeria.
TrackaNG made the allegation in a report released on Tuesday, 9 June 2026, stating that it conducted a verification visit to the school and found no trace of the project on site.
According to the organisation, the funds were paid in February 2025 to Keritage Energy Limited for the construction of a security post with CCTV installation, perimeter fencing, solar street lights, and a generator.
It, however, claimed that none of the listed components were visible during its assessment of the school premises.
“N174.7 million was paid but nothing was done,” the group alleged, questioning the whereabouts of the funds.
TrackaNG also stated that the school principal denied knowledge of the project or receipt of any related funds.
The organisation further alleged that some infrastructure observed at the school, including streetlights, were installed by the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), while other works were attributed to the alumni association.
It added that there was no generator installed and no CCTV system present despite claims in project documentation.
TrackaNG called on the Federal College of Agriculture, Ishagu, identified as the implementing agency, to publicly account for the utilisation of the funds.
It also urged the ICPC to launch a formal investigation into possible financial misconduct surrounding the project.

The allegation adds to ongoing concerns about transparency and accountability in the execution of government-funded projects across Nigeria, particularly constituency and intervention schemes that have faced repeated scrutiny over abandonment and alleged non-performance.
