CBN Probe: Experts want FG to engage audit firms

The stakeholders, who commented on the FG’s appointment of the former Chief Executive Officer of the Financial Reporting Council (FRC), noted that the law empowered the FRC to carry out such investigation, adding that going outside the FRC to appoint an individual could send the wrong message.

According to Prof. Uche Uwaleke, the Director, Institute of Capital Market Studies, Nasarawa State University Keffi, it is not out of place for the president to commission an enquiry into the activities of the apex bank.
Uwaleke, however, said that a consortium of audit firms could be trusted to do a more thorough probe than a private investigator.
