Imo State Governor, HE Emeka Ihedioha, has announced his readiness to sign an Executive Order to bring into force the use of the Treasury Single Account by the State Government.

Ihedioha in Owerri, on Tuesday said the move became imperative following the discovery of over 250 accounts in various banks operated by the Rochas Okorocha led government.

Ihedioha said his discovery on assumption of office was that there were leakages in the revenue accruing to the state government.

He said this was largely due to numerous accounts being used for collection.

He said this accounted for why he decided to sanitise the state’s financial system.

The governor disclosed that he had sought the assistance of a former Director General of the Debt Management Office, Abraham Nwankwo, for a critical look at the financial system.

“It is not an insurmountable issue, we will block all loopholes for leakages and corruption.

“We discovered over 250 revenue accounts. So I will sign the Executive Order for the TSA to begin immediately”, he stressed.

I am completely dumbfounded, its really pathetic that the petty theif whom had all the goodwill in 2011 became a thorn on the flesh of NdiImo.
Power corrupts and it is indeed toxic, am ashamed.

Oga governor, Sign that damn thing and save us your drama. What's this 'to sign' abeg?

This thing continue fooling gullible people.

Any state that is not using a TSA will have hundreds of accounts. Each ministry, MDAs and agency will have at different level, local governments and place.
Imo state can't have less than 17 ministries with each having over 10 or more agencies or departments that have different responsibilities - meaning they need to have independent accounts.
Teaching Service Commission of Ogun stats has 26 local government offices, with each having its own account. Same with Ministry of Education. Same with many such agencies.

Sign the TSA and forget all these sensationalism.
