JUST IN: Provide update on missing N3bn within 48 hours, Reps tells ITF

In continuation of its hearing on the Medium-Term Expenditure Framework and the Fiscal Strategy Paper, the House of Representatives on Monday, issued a 48-hour ultimatum to the Industrial Training Fund to explain the whereabouts of N3 billion traced to the agency as contained in the Auditor General for the Federation’s report for 2022.

The Chairman of the Committee on Finance who presided over an interactive session with some heads of Federal Government agencies, gave the charge at the National Assembly Complex.

It also directed the Nigerian Communications Commission to explain how it spent N291 bn in 2022 on broadband across the country, with services still not up to standards.
