Audit reports: Reps vows to expose ministries, agencies
NAN reports that the Chairman, Committee on Public Accounts, Rep. Wole Oke, disclosed this during an investigative public hearing into the audit reports of MDAs on Monday.
“If you have submitted to the auditor-general, show us proof; we are only saying based on the records that we have, so many agencies have refused to comply with the provision of the Constitution and relevant statutes. “You can discharge your duties when discharging money when it comes to accountability, you shy away. If the MD of Bank of Industry can be here, Director of DPR can be here, Nigerian Export-Import Bank are here, why won’t others?He noted that in 2016, 323 MDAs failed to submit their audited reports to the OAGF compared to 215 unsubmitted reports in 2015; 148 in 2014; 109 in 2013; 85 in 2012; and 76 in 2011.
