In a significant development, Nigeria’s Minister of Finance, Wale Edun, announced that a forensic audit of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Limited is currently in progress. This announcement was made during the Nigerian Investor Forum, which took place on Tuesday alongside the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank spring meetings in Washington, D.C
The forensic audit aims to enhance transparency and accountability within the NNPC, a critical player in Nigeria’s oil and gas sector.
