The House of Representatives has issued the Accountant General of the Federation (AGF), Mrs. Oluwatoyin Madein, a 72-hour ultimatum to submit a detailed report on how the N100 billion COVID-19 intervention funds released by President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration to Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) between 2020 and 2022 was spent.
The House Committee on Public Accounts led by its Chairman, Hon. Bamidele Salam, which issued the ultimatum in Abuja on Tuesday, took exception to the AGF’s refusal to comply with the resolution of the Committee to submit the report on 27th October, 2023.
