CHAPTER ONE

Those who a seen them selves as being opportunity  to control government owned establishment use the opportunity to perpetrate fraud or  misappropriate public funds and properties. However, the auditor should recognize the possibilities of material, misstatement or irregularities or fraud, and see that errors which could distort the trueness and fairness of the financial account are not committed.  Therefore, a statutory auditor is said to be a watch dog and not a blood hound.

Our law makers have seen the need for acceptable accountability by making a provision for the federal and stated government to report on the account of stewardship rendered by these public officers.
