The 2022 Auditor General report has indicted two account Officers of the Greater Accra Regional Department of Urban Roads for embezzling one point nine million Cedis between January 2020 to March 2022.
They are Former Greater Accra Regional Accountants and an account staff of the department.
While the Regional Accountant alone embezzled about one point six million Cedis from fraudulent withdrawals, both of them on separate occasions collected a total revenue of more than three hundred thousand Cedis but failed to account for the revenue.
It was uncovered in the Auditor General’s report on public accounts of Ministries, Departments and Agencies.
The Auditor General, therefore, recommended that the Acting.
The Regional Director of the Department should recover the money from the two staff without delay.
