The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) has begun tracking 124 executive and constituency projects worth N37 billion in Yobe.
Yilzem Hyacienth, ICPC Team Lead, Yobe Tracking Team, disclosed this to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Thursday in Gashua, Bade Local Government Area of the state.
He said the exercise which began on Monday, would focus on projects across different sectors including education, youths and sports, roads construction and water resources.
Hyacienth said the team would also track captive funds projects executed and handled by the Tertiary Education Fund (TETfund), National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) and North East Development Commission (NEDC), among others.
The Team Lead said the 124 projects were scattered across the three senatorial districts of Yobe North, Yobe South and Yobe East, otherwise known as Zones A, B and C.
“ Like the name, Constituency and Executive Projects Tracking Initiative, projects sponsored by members of the National Assembly as well as projects executed by the Executive arm of Government will be covered by this tracking exercise.
“ Communities are encouraged to take ownership of all projects executed by ensuring that the government gets value for money, and where projects are not properly executed bring such to the attention of the ICPC,” he advised.
