Something is fundamentally wrong with this news. The Auditor General does not report to the president, so, why is he presenting the report of the environmental impact audit of Lake Chad basin to PMB? The report should form a part of his annual report to the National assembly for consideration by the public accounts committee.

Thanks bro.
Just to be fair, i'll point out that the said drama never took place. This is simply another stunt from the Gods you worship. They are actually more ignorant than their ediotic supporters. When the story was been cooked, they did not take into account, the constitution. They were more concerned with the awe, ignorant people would have gotten from the display of the President, in terms of crossing the I's and Dotting the T's, on corruption. The story will be debunked once the APC get wind of the constitution gaffe.

I don't know if he was invited or not. But the constitution is very clear that all his audit report should go to the National assembly. Beside, the Auditor General does not take direction or orders from anyone.


Section 85 (5) The Auditor-General shall, within ninety days of receipt of the Accountant-General's financial statement, submit his reports under this section to each House of the National Assembly and each House shall cause the reports to be considered by a committee of the House of the National Assembly responsible for public accounts. (6) In the exercise of his functions under this Constitution, the Auditor-General shall not be subject to the direction or control of any other authority.

But he found his way into the presidential chamber invited.

You cant blame the man.. He is running a 1984 government in the year of our lord 2015 and will continuously need "interpretations" to understand whats going on.... The fact that he wasted over 5 months to appoint Fashola and Amechi ministers only illustrates the monumental confusion that pervades officialdom under this mans watch.. He acts as if he knows what he is doing but the fact is that he is actually shallow/petty minded while lacking the intellectual base to run a modern economy..
Do you just oppose for the mere sake of opposition? Did you read the report or you just commented because you saw the word Buhari?
The report is about a leader who seems to understand the issue more than the civil servants who must have done a terrible job but cannot get away with it because the person receiving the report well understood the subject matter more than him.

I am not one of those anti Buhari elements that criticises everything that comes from the president. I have also not claimed to know more than anybody. I only pointed out a clear breach of the constitution and I have quoted the relevant section in my previous post on this thread.

A president who remembers details of a study done during Obasanjo regime. That is a President that is switched on.
Only Awo, Obj and Yaradua have ever displayed that detailed knowledge and concentration on what happens in government. Abacha and Shagari would have fallen asleep during the briefing. Gowon would have asked too many questionsc directed at the super permanent Secretaries.Murtala Muhammed would have told the man to hurry up with his recommendation he wants to take his decision there and then.

Who exactly does the Auditor General report to when ministers are not around?. The report itself was on a financial audit so what was wrong with this news item?

Hope you learn something from the below answers? Smh. Lol.


seunmsg:


The Auditor General does not report to the president or any minister. He reports to the National Assembly and his reports are considered by the public accounts committee of both the house of reps and senate.

"While the president noted that the report did not take into account the feasibility study conducted by a team under the tenure of former President Olusegun Obasabjo which cost Nigeria $5 million, the AGF insisted that that was outside his supervision, saying that Lake Chad Basin Commission (LCBC) has that responsibility.

But the president insisted that the AGF should give relevant explanations of the omission"




So, who authored the report?

Well the problem with the report is that the lake chad is drying up and PMB intends to sink more money there till he finds oil.

So he needs the $5m report to justify his spending when the time comes.

So, who authored the report?

We are not told. Basic comprehension
We are not told what the report is either whether it is a financial report or a qualitative report we can only speculate
We do not know in what capacity he went there so we cannot say he "broke protocol"
It is not wise to make assertions without facts

It is always hard to cover lies. The AGF suddenly forgot the meaning of the word "general" when the time came for real auditing. Let him be drilled well and he will open up on what he and obj are covering.

Another lie from the APC e-sh|t machine. After their fake story on the supposed price drop in PMS has been debunked by the NNPC, they have moved on to more scintillating lies. Tomorrow, the AGF will come out to also debunk this story. Sometimes I wonder if the APC spin crowd proof read this stories before releasing them, because at the end of the day, they actually do more harm than good to the APC government. Someone needs to reset their priorities and that has to be done ASAP.
bro you need rest ASAP
