Allegation
The Coalition of Plateau Citizens of Conscience for Good Governance and Accountability on Democratic Matters called on the EFCC to probe former Governor Simon Lalong over roughly ₦50bn in abandoned 'legacy projects' now in court with contractors, alongside allegedly missing ₦17bn in PAYE taxes and unclear loans for projects such as a flyover and street lighting.
Outcome / Status
No public EFCC investigation or prosecution of Lalong tied to these specific allegations has been confirmed; the disputed legacy projects remain tied up in contractor litigation inherited from his administration.
Administration's response
The Mutfwang administration has not published a specific response or reopened investigation into this set of allegations; the projects remain a matter for the courts rather than a stated government probe.

Allegation
The Lalong administration announced in March 2018 that it had procured 400 tractors for Plateau farmers, but when then-President Buhari was invited to commission them, only about 40 were on display, raising questions about the whereabouts and actual number procured.
Outcome / Status
An independent Premium Times investigation found the discrepancy unresolved years later, with most Plateau farmers still lacking access to the promised equipment; no public accounting of the missing tractors has been produced.
Administration's response
Neither the Lalong administration nor the succeeding Mutfwang government has published a reconciled tractor-procurement or distribution record.
