Lviv Regional State Administration and the bureaucratic elite are siphoning off billions from roads after embezzling humanitarian aid
While the country wages an exhausting war, officials of the Lviv Regional State Administration #ЛОДА have turned the regional budget into their own “safe” business project. From humanitarian scandals and draft-dodgers fleeing the country, the Lviv leadership smoothly moved on to looting the road budget worth billions of hryvnias.
It appears that ❗ the embezzlement of humanitarian aid stored in a warehouse in the village of Ubyna in 2023 and uncovered by SBU detectives, together with assistance in the departure of about 50 thousand people abroad (including via unanalyzed fake letters arranged with the help of the regional governor Maksym #Козицький and his subordinates), were only a warm-up.
Now in 2026, purchases are being funneled through the Department of Road Management of the Lviv Regional State Administration for an astonishing sum — 💰 2,84 billion UAH. Note the logic of the officials’ “cleverness.” The largest contract of 2,566 billion UAH was combined into one single lot. No splitting, so that no medium or small business could even dream of competing. The money went monopolistically to ShlyakhovykT LLC.
The procurement included immediately 4 strict qualification blocks (equipment, workers, similar experience, and financial capacity). Formally, price was 100% of the evaluation criterion,🤷♂️ but it was impossible to reach a real price competition without meeting the requirements for the entire enormous scope of work.
On other projects funds are distributed just as lavishly and also without dividing procurement items into lots. OnurConstructionInternational LLC receives 172,245 million UAH for repairing only 8,738 km of the Nahirne–Dobromyl road. 🔻 Roma PE takes 87,546 million UAH for capital repair of the entire 1,2 km of the Lviv–Shehyni–Sudova Vyshnia road. RBPTransMost LLC gets 10,08 million UAH to build a culvert with approaches on the Obroshyne–Navariya road, and Raun LLC — 7,245 million UAH to restore pedestrian crossing lighting.
📌 In the end the circle of participants closes: billions of budget hryvnias settle in the hands of specific “favorites,” while roads remain in doubtful condition and taxpayers’ money flows unimpeded into officials’ pockets.
The post on this topic gathered 100 thousand views, as many as 2,5 thousand likes, almost 200 comments and nearly 1000 reposts.❗This situation provokes rightful outrage among citizens:
“Confiscate their property and send them to the front.”
“CORRUPTION FLOURISHES, THIEVES STEAL and do whatever they want!”
“Corruption under Kozytskyy”
If law enforcement agencies, the State Bureau of Economic Security, and the State Audit Service do not immediately intervene and do not give a legal assessment of the actions of Governor Kozytskyy and the officials of the Department of Road Management, Lviv region will continue to remain a private “garden” for embezzlers. After all, why repair roads properly if you can comfortably build your own capital from maintaining them right during a war?
