The Nigerian government has decided to extend a forensic investigation into its systems, including the payroll, following the discovery of additional fake agencies by the ICPC. This decision was made after President Bola Tinubu briefed the Federal Executive Council on the ICPC's interim report on the fake Presidential Foreign Investment Promotion Council (PFIPC).
The probe aims to establish how the fake agencies obtained official codes, identify weaknesses in government processes, and strengthen internal controls. The Minister of Finance, Taiwo Oyedele, emphasized the importance of finding problems and addressing them decisively to prevent future occurrences and improve the country's systems.
