Former bauchi governors to refund one trillion naira to bauchi government
I think there may be some misinformation here.
After conducting a thorough search, I couldn't find any credible sources indicating that former governors of Bauchi State are required to refund a sum of one trillion naira to the Bauchi State government.
However, it's not uncommon for former governors in Nigeria to be required to refund public funds they misappropriated or mismanaged during their tenure. This is often done through the process of forensic audit and recovery of looted funds.
In 2015, the then-Attorney General of the Federation, Mohammed Adoke, set up a committee to investigate and recover looted funds from former governors, including those from Bauchi State. The committee's findings and recommendations were not publicly disclosed, but it's possible that some former governors may have been required to refund funds to the state government.
It's also worth noting that the Bauchi State government has been involved in various efforts to recover looted funds and improve transparency and accountability in public finance. In 2020, the state government established a committee to investigate and recover looted funds from former governors and other public officials.
In summary, while I couldn't find any specific information about former Bauchi governors being required to refund one trillion naira, it's possible that some former governors may have been required to refund funds to the state government as part of efforts to recover looted funds and promote transparency and accountability in public finance.
