The Kaduna state deputy governor, Bala Barnabas Bantex, has revealed that N24 billion was recovered by the state government in 423 bank accounts in the state as a result of the government’s decision to begin remitting its earnings into a Treasury Single Account (TSA).

The deputy governor made the disclosure yesterday while standing in for Governor Nasir El Rufai at a town hall meeting in the Southern part of the state.

He revealed that the accounts were operated by the previous administration in the state and the adoption of TSA brought about the recovery of the funds, Leadership reports. He also told his audience about the government’s plan to bring back the state taxi scheme in urban centres across the state, with plans to distribute 200 branded air condition cars to youths in Kaduna.
