The Assembly however, ordered the summoned government functionaries to submit all relevant details of the federation account accrued to the state, financial expenditure, internally generated revenue and the cash flow and disbursement to local governments.
The legislators unanimously moved a motion to verify the claims and discover the circumstances surrounding the downturn of the financial status of the state.
