To date, Mykolaiv has already provided almost 700 million hryvnias in aid to the Defense Forces. Next up are cars for AFU and MDIU.

We will remind, recently Mykolaiv businessman, head of ViK Technologies company Oleksandr Zhak declared about corruption in Mykolaiv region related to purchases for the reconstruction of the water pipeline.

As you know, the publication «Our Money» analyzed the purchases of the Mykolaiv Regional Military Administration for the reconstruction of the water supply in Mykolaiv with a total cost of 836 million hryvnias, and stated that the prices were inflated by 2-3 times. Reacting to this publication, the head of Mykolayiv OVA Vitaliy Kim said that he would account for every penny spent and urged «do not believe bad news». Commenting on this investigation, the Department of Urban Planning, Architecture, Capital Construction and Support of Development Projects of OVA stated that the prices indicated in the tender fully correspond to reality.

However, three weeks ago, the head of the Mykolaiv region held a briefing, at which he thanked the journalists and confirmed the fact that the contractor had inflated the price. He noted that during the analysis of the cost, it was found that the contractor included inflation in the prices not only this year, but also the next, and therefore the amount of the tender will decrease.

We will also remind you that the Department of Architecture of the Mykolaiv Regional Military Administration concluded 27 direct contracts for the development of design and estimate documents and the carrying out of capital repairs of public institutions with a company that has been in existence for less than six months and is owned by a member of the public council of the region on restoration issues within a month.
