Speaker of the house of representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila says the national assembly will work towards ensuring that government institutions are accountable in the use of public funds.

Gbajabiamila who was represented by Ndudi Elumelu, minority leader of the House of Representatives spoke on Monday at a public hearing organised by the house of representatives committee on finance to consider the 2021 finance bill.

He said the lawmakers will scrutinise the 2021 finance bill to ensure that it reforms the finance system and blocks revenue leakages.

According to him: “Essentially the 2021 finance bill seeks to introduce strategic and broadminded, positive reforms that will engender best practices, statutorily check borrowing by local, states and federal government, enhance transparency and accountability in the administration in various strata of tax and public revenue generation, while at the same time guaranteeing the interest of the investing public and businesses,”

“Given the democratic credentials of the house of representatives under my watch as well as the need to further deepen the credibility of the process through wider participation of stakeholders, this stakeholders meeting has been designed to give Nigerians and critical stakeholders in the industry the ample opportunity to own and drive the process.

“In this hall, we have very proficient professionals and experts, who as stakeholders, investors, development partners and interest groups have submitted memoranda and are ready to make contributions to the bill.

“It is on this backdrop that I charge this stakeholders meeting to extensively scrutinise the templates in the bill in the general interest. We must strengthen the institution to strategically check reckless borrowings by ensuring accountability in the use of borrowed funds and ensuring that the borrowings shall be on concessional terms or at relatively low-interest rates and subject to the rigours of legislation.”
