Dr Mohammed Inname, the state’s acting Commissioner for Finance, stated yesterday that the World Bank has been running the SFTAS in the 36 states and the FCT for the past four to five years.

“It is intended to strengthen the financial and accountability systems in the states and the Federal Capital Territory,” he said (FCT). The project will be completed by the end of this year, and states that performed well will be recognized.”
