FCT Council Chairmen Evade Accountability as Reps Issue Final Summons

According to Vanguard News, the House of Representatives Public Accounts Committee (PAC) has issued a seven-day ultimatum to FCT Area Councils regarding outstanding audit queries worth about N100 billion. This comes after FCT Council Chairmen failed to respond to earlier queries on alleged financial infractions, as reported by Punch Newspapers and Nigeria Abuja. The Reps have now threatened sanctions against the chairmen if they fail to appear before the committee. This evasion of accountability raises concerns about transparency and good governance in the FCT administration. It is important for Nigerian readers to understand how these developments may impact public funds and service delivery.
