Engr. Makinde said his government inherited a minimum debt of N150 billion, adding that his administration was still checking the books to determine the actual total debt.
He said: “We have confirmed N150b debt so far. We are still working to discover any other one. Some of them may be questionable. If you take bond, it is always tied to a particular project. If we want, we can do value-for-money audit.”
Makinde said the figure represents the amount discovered so far, pointing out that some of the debts may be questionable.
He also accused the last administration for rejecting
their request for information until the ‘last day.’“That’s why we spent the last month getting details from departments and ministries. Within next 10-14 days we should have everything in place including the commissioners.”
