Governor Dave Umahi of Ebonyi State has said he has always been accountable for his administration’s expenditures.
The Special Assistant to the Governor on Media and Strategy, Chuks Oko, made this known on Monday while reacting to the planned meeting between the governors and some key government agencies.
Naija News reported that the Nigeria Governors’ Forum (NGF) will on Tuesday meet with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFC), the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC), the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), and the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS).
It is understood that the two anti-graft agencies, CBN and FIRS will be meeting with the governors to discuss how they spent their security votes while in office. 
Also, the meeting will also consider deepening the management and expansion of the cashless policy which took effect from the time of the redesigning of the national currency to further the financial inclusion of all citizens in the ensuing scheme of things, going forward.
In a chat with Vanguard, Oko said the Ebonyi governor runs a prudent and transparent government, stressing that there is nothing to hide from the anti-graft agencies.
He said: “We have always been accountable for what we spend. The Governor runs a prudent and transparent government.
“There is nothing strange in explaining how money is spent in this administration, it is something handy that we have no issues handling.”
