He said the agencies must also keep him informed of actions being taken in respect the audit.

“All investigating agencies and auditing firms currently working collaboratively with National Assembly Committees to audit and reposition the NDDC must act with urgency and a sense of purpose, and ensure that I am kept informed of any and all actions being taken”, he said.

He restated his determination to entrench transparency and accountability, adding that it applies not only to the NDDC, but also to all other institutions of the Federal Government. “We will not relent”, Buhari said.
