Umahi Faces N350 Million Contract Allegations from Ohiri

Engr David Umahi, currently serving as a minister, is embroiled in controversy due to allegations made by Tracy Ohiri, who claims he owes her N350 million for unpaid contracts. The situation escalated with a viral video and a press interview where Ohiri detailed her claims after being arraigned in an Abuja magistrate's court.

The court has adjourned the matter until April 2026. Critics have raised questions about the validity of Ohiri's claims, noting inconsistencies in her statements regarding the debt.

Initially, she claimed the amount owed was N24.5 million before revising it to N350 million, which has led to skepticism about her motives and the timing of her allegations. The claims are further complicated by her previous engagement with the People's Democratic Party and the nature of the contracts, which she has not substantiated with clear evidence.

The public discourse around this issue reflects broader concerns about due process and accountability in contract dealings.
