Accountant General of the Federation (AGF), Ahmed Idris, has assured Nigerians that public funds will never end up in private pockets any more.
Speaking at the Daily Trust Board of Economists Breakfast Meeting held in Abuja on Thursday, Idris said Nigeria has adopted international standard for its accounting system to ensure nothing was hidden from the general public.
The AGF said the Treasury Single Account ensures that government can easily fund it’s budget as public funds will no longer go to private pockets.
He said the federal government has weeded all ghost workers out of its payroll through online system of salary payment.
He said no single individual will be able to collect more than one single salary in a month due to checks put in place by the government.
