The Tender required bidders to provide a bid security.  \nEvidence indicates that Company A and its managing director, Individual M, submitted a falsified Bank Security in its bid for the Tender.  \nThe World Bank imposed the sanction of debarment with conditional release on Company A and Individual M.

The Project became effective in September 2013 and, after Additional Financing was approved, is scheduled to close in June 2021.  \nThe Project’s development objective is to reduce vulnerability to soil erosion in targeted subwatersheds. The Project, implemented by Federal Ministry of Environment, is multi-sectoral and multi-state, involving many federal and state Ministries, Departments and Agencies (“MDAs”), local governments, communities, and civil society in southern and northern Nigeria. Each component, sub-component, and activity is implemented through relevant federal and state MDAs, relying upon a robust annual joint work programming process facilitated by the respective Project Management Units (“PMU”)– one at the federal level (the Federal Project Management Unit (“FPMU”)) and one for each participating state (the State Project Management Unit (“SPMU”)) .
