₦1.25 billion extra-budgetary spending by NESREA

Acting on an audit query, the House Committee on Public Accounts, chaired by Oluwole Oke, resolved to investigate ₦1.25 billion in extra-budgetary spending by the National Environmental Standards and Regulations Enforcement Agency in 2019. After the Director General, Aliyu Jauro, said the National Assembly had approved the agency's spending of its internally generated revenue, the committee invited the chairmen of the Senate and House Committees on Environment to explain their role, saying there was no evidence the budget had passed through plenary.
