Another senseless wild goose chase. When they make $1=1naira, you people should ring me up.

Calling on President Muhammadu Buhari to take action, Global Fund said Nigeria has faced significant challenges around financial management, which has led to a number of investigations and recoveries of grant money in the past years.

The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria (GFATM) has suspended disbursement of funds to Nigeria following discovery of large scale fraud to the tune of millions of dollars.

The organisation, which is the highest donor to Nigeria in terms of HIV and malaria, said it has disbursed more than $1.4 billion to the country since 2003.

Calling on President Muhammadu Buhari to take action, Global Fund said Nigeria has faced significant challenges around financial management, which has led to a number of investigations and recoveries of grant money in the past years.

Mark Dybul, an executive director at Global Fund, said an audit report exposed “challenges of grants not achieving impact targets, poor quality of health services, treatment disruptions and fraud, corruption and misuse of funds”.

“The audit report on Nigeria covered US$889 million of Global Fund grants, and found systemic weakness in the controls in various government entities,” he said.

“The investigation report found fraud and collusion in the amount of US$3.8 million.”

Dybul said the audit reviewed multiple grants between 2013 and 2015, and identified significant problems with internal controls relating to procurement conducted by government agencies like the National Agency for Control of AIDS (NACA) and the National Malaria Elimination Programme (NMEP).

The audit identified $20 million as expenditure for which NACA was unable to provide supporting documentation.

NACA was also accused of non-compliance with procurement policies and inadequate controls over the distribution of health commodities for HIV.

The organisation said it also observed inadequate inventory management which resulted in expired HIV commodities worth $5.4 million in the last two years.

“In addition, the audit identified a lack of documentary evidence related to human resources and payment approval processes, with $7.65 million identified as unsupported expenditures,” he said.

“Following work performed by a third party fiscal agent, US$5.1 million has now been verified, based on a review of supporting documentation that was not available during the audit; US$1.0 million requires further clarification, and US$1.5 million of expenditure that has not yet been reviewed due to timing.

“We expect to be able to provide a final, comprehensive view of these expenditures by 10 May.”

Dybul revealed that about $3.8 million of irregular spending was also uncovered at the Department of Health Planning, Research & Statistics (DPRS).

He said malaria stocks were out in all the 42 health facilities visited by the fund’s office of inspector general within eight months.

Otherwise... Yoruba avengers loading...

Firefire:
Long time madam, how are you and your son ?


APC should better start implementing the budget immediately, [b]otherwise.../b]

TonyeBarcanista:
You have no idea woman..... keep up with the bitter saliva, it is your forte

Firefire:
Congrats to APC for signing into law the highly padded budget of the century.

kcnwaigbo:
when you were shouting boko haram attacks!! chibok girls!! was it affecting Jonathan? oya continue

Beremx:
this one will always support militancy and violence. Go queue and buy fuel for your generator that is if you have one. I am sure you will also be affected by the blackout.

nonsense!

Bassee:
So the North and South West will be in light while the rest will swim in darkness? Do you even believe your own lies? Pipeline attacks affect everyone and the moment you guys advise Buhari to do the needful and protect our pipelines, the better for us all! Buhari hasn't invested a dime in any other sector of our economy since he came in and Nigerians are crying, If oil is taken away, apart from Buhari whose food budget covers him, the rest of us are in for it.

Pontaboki:
The Zoological republic,the 5% has spoken

TonyeBarcanista:
Chai! I doubt you have any knowledge of party politics... Even Modu Sherrif is LOBBYING to retain his seat.

HopeAtHand:
I think he would win because his state is a PDP state against Lagos and Ogun which are APC controlled.

If other contestants are backed by either Akpabio or Wike, money will determine.

SleekAboki:
Nigerians complex problems defiles text book solutions but requires cutting edge alien inspired solutions. One would ordinarily say why not we just divide the geographical expression and go our separate ways but when you take into account genocide that would likely occur as a result of boundary disputes and rights to resources such ideas are easily dismissed.

I feel we as a people and Nigeria as a country has gotten to that point where we are faced with the stark choice of evolve or die.We either device new approaches to handling our affairs or we all gonna die!

SleekAboki:
If this nation is to be divided today,expect more of these nationwide. The north itself would be an epic battle field between the Saudi Sunni and Iranian Shiite not to talk of ethnic resumption of hostilities between Fulani and the middle belt.

We need to tell ourselves the truth and come to the round table to look for peaceful ways we can collectively forage ahead or peaceful go our separate ways. If these two things fail then Nigeria would witness a great evil never seen before in the history of mankind.This generation must be bold to iron out these issues so that the next-generation can build on a clean slate.

Who said she is wicked looks like u and twisting words are like bread and butter.

TonyeBarcanista:
This is lame....

People like you fail to understand that winners of Conventions are determined by;

1. Those with high connections
2. Those that gets those that CONTROLS delegates to themselves.
3. Those that uses money to buy delegates.

It is not determined by noisemaking or those with loud Governors. Can you compare delegates controlled by Kashamu and those by Ayp Fayose(that is restricted to Ekiti)? Hello even Govs do lose out in convention and congresses(ask Ladoja 2006 and Ambadinuju 2003) or Read how Sheriff beat his predecessor even though they were same party in 2003. Gosh

Proudlyngwa:
Akpabio was very unprofessional with that statement.
That was a direct insult to Abia state and a misleading lie. The knee jerk reaction is not to trade blames but to correct wrong impressions.
In a sane environment, we would be investigating why the situation normalized when useless former governor T. A Orji, decamped from PPA to PDP

TonyeBarcanista:
Who dash am? is it by noise? There are delegates from 37 Chapters(Plus FCT) that will elect not just Ekiti delegates.



Sola Kuti will win
