AG To Audit GBC’s Internally Generated Funds

The Auditor General is to audit the internally generated funds of the Ghana Broadcasting Corporation, (GBC) for the past 24 years.

A letter dated January 5 and addressed to the Director General of GBC, said a three-member team has been formed “to execute the assignment within two weeks, starting from January 15, 2018. 

The letter, signed by the Ag. Dep. Auditor-General, Cornelius Normanyo for the Auditor-General, emphasises the mandate of the Auditor General as per Article 187(2) of the 1992 Constitution to audit all state institutions and has therefore called for “full co-operation” from the state broadcaster.

“The Auditor General has requested the audit of the Internally Generated Funds (IGF) of Ghana Broadcasting Corporation (GBC). The period of the audit covers January 1993 to December 2017”, the letter said.

GBC has been trending in the news lately following efforts by its management to enforce TV Licence Fee collection, particularly the establishment of special courts to prosecute offenders.
