How we’ll utilise donated funds — COVID-19 Task Force

The Nigerian government plans to overhaul the country’s health system in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic across the country, the Presidential Task Force onThe Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Boss Mustapha, who is also the chairman of the task force, made this known during a meeting with the leadership of the National Assembly on Thursday.

To this end, he said, the taskforce has proposed to utilise the resources being mobilised in a more “strategic manner.” “The Accountant General of the Federation has already published the account details for collection through some commercial banks and also provided the modalities for its utilisation. All the main COVID-19 accounts shall be domiciled in the Central Bank of Nigeria.

“First of all, you are supposed to be the custodian of all the challenges that we face as far as COVID-19 is concerned. If any state has a challenge, I am sure there is a proper structure and route for reporting, so that you take down the situation and take the necessary steps. “Where everybody is just collecting and spending, I think it will lead us in a very bad shape. When people contribute their funds, they want to see such funds properly utilised. They want to see efficiency. They want to see transparency. They want to see accountability and of course, probity in what the funds are used for.
