The Ondo State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB) has continued to ignore audit queries and directives issued by the Ondo State House of Assembly for five years, according to the 2025 Report of the State Auditor-General, raising fresh concerns over accountability and transparency in the management of public funds.
The audit report disclosed that several unresolved issues dating back to 2021 remain unattended to despite repeated reminders from the Office of the State Auditor-General and resolutions of the House of Assembly's Public Accounts Committee (PAC).
Under the section titled "Outstanding Matters From Year 2021 To 2024 Auditor-General's Report Not Attended To," the report stated that "some issues were raised in the Auditor-General's report for year 2021 in paragraph 1.0 to 4.0."
According to the report, the Public Accounts Committee of the Ondo State House of Assembly considered the Auditor-General's reports for 2019 and 2020 between July 5 and July 12, 2022, and directed the Board to address all issues identified.
It stated that "the Public Accounts Committee of the Ondo State House of Assembly, having considered the Auditor-General's reports for years 2019-2020 between 5th and 12th July, 2022, mandated the Board to attend to the issues raised by the Auditor-General."
