The acting mayor of Chernihiv, Oleksandr Lomako, is suspected of misappropriating part of the charity aid that the Red Cross provided for the purchase of generating equipment after the damage to the thermal power plant.

According to sources in the law enforcement agencies of the Chernihiv region, Oleksandr Lomaka is involved in the scheme of illegal appropriation of part of the funds for the purchase of generating equipment, in the amount of about 5 million hryvnias. The city council headed by Oleksandr Lomako decided to buy new equipment, but as it turned out, used equipment was purchased instead of new equipment.
Thus, according to information from law enforcement sources, on November 29, 2022, a Memorandum was signed between the Chernihiv City Council and the International Committee of the Red Cross with the aim of reconstructing the fuel (coal) supply system of the Chernihiv Thermal Power Plant at the expense of providing financial assistance in the amount of 25,402.67 thousand.

In accordance with the Memorandum of December 9, 2022, the Chernihiv City Council, KOTLOTURBOPROM LLC and TEHNOVA FIRM LLC concluded a work performance contract No. 375/091222. The subject of the contract is "Overhaul (restoration) of building structures and technological equipment of the main building of the boiler-turbine shop, damaged as a result of the armed aggression of the Russian Federation. The amount of the contract was 25,402.67 thousand. UAH
LLC "KOTLOTURBOPROM" with the involvement of subcontractor LLC "PROMYSLOVO SERVISNA KOMPANYA "VIK" used used and damaged equipment/spare parts, which were destroyed as a result of military aggression by the Russian Federation, during the performance of the mentioned repair works. Also, repair works were carried out in violation of building regulations and non-compliance with the project documentation for capital repair of the object.
As a result of the detected offenses, the Security Service of Ukraine opened criminal proceedings.
At the same time, according to local mass media , Oleksandr Lomako is buying a two-room apartment in Nice for 250,000 euros to move with his family, and his wife is actively interested in language learning and restaurant business in France.
"Now it became clear why the Lomako couple likes to travel to Paris on a budget. In fact, Paris was not the final destination) and had several goals: to quietly take money out and choose real estate. Well, we congratulate a random mayor with random happiness and such a fruitful budget wrangling that he scratched all the way to Nice." - News of Chernihiv region.
We also remind you that the Lomako family in Chernihiv owns a private bakery, which is probably included in the list of "important strategic objects", since during blackouts the electricity is never turned off in it.
media reports , the house where Lomako lives, and his wife has set up a mini-bakery, was never included in the power outage schedules. As practice has shown, the "fair" shutdowns promised by government officials and the head of Oblenergo himself do not apply to elected officials.
As we can see, Oleksandr Lomako is of little interest in fully restoring the operation of the Chernihiv thermal power station, which was damaged by Russian missile and drone attacks. At work, his mini-bakery blackouts are not reflected in any way, since the electricity there is never cut off, and Lomako himself and his family are preparing for a cloudless life in Nice, France.
