The House of Representatives says it will petition President Muhammadu Buhari over the refusal of some agencies of government to appear before its Committee on Public Account to answer questions bothering on financial irregularities.
The House Committee on Public Account has expressed disappointment over the refusal of the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria Godwin Emiefele, Group Managing Director of the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation, Managing Director of the Nigeria Port Authority, Hadiza Bala Usman and the Bureau for Public Enterprises to appear before it over sales of federal government landed property across the country.
The agencies, alongside the National Emergency Management Agency, and the Petroleum Equalisation Fund have failed to appear before the Committee on Public Account over the sales of some government property.
