Breach of contract’: house of Assembly threatens to revoke supply of vehicles agreement with Innoson
The Abia house of assembly has threatened to terminate its contract with the Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing Company over an alleged breach of an agreement to produce vehicles for the lawmakers.
Emmanuel Emeruwa, the speaker of the assembly, told journalists on Thursday that the lawmakers have yet to receive their vehicles one year after their inauguration
He said the preference for IVM vehicles was informed by the initiative of Alex Otti, governor of the state, to promote local content.
Emeruwa said the company had received all the money required to produce vehicles for the lawmakers but had reneged on the agreement.
So far, Innoson has not been able to produce or perform its own side of the agreement. At this point, we are on the verge of terminating that contract and asking for our money back if he doesn’t perform within the next 15 days,” the speaker said.
This house is very serious about it, and they cannot continue pacifying us after one year.”
Earlier this month, Innoson donated a firefighting truck to the Abia government.
Innocent Chukwuma, chairman and managing director of Innoson, said the donation was his company’s contribution in response to the fire incidents in the state.
