The House of Representatives Committee investigating the non-remittances of funds to the National Housing Fund has summoned the Accountant General of the Federation, OLUWATOYIN SAKIRAT to appear before it.

The summon was given by the Chairman of the committee, Honourable DACHUNG BAGOS during the committee meeting in Abuja.

The Accountant General is to explain why there are differences in the deductions from workers from various agencies of government and why only 20 billion naira has been remitted to the Federal Mortgage Bank since 2011.

The House asked the Accountant General to furnish the committee with information on what has been deducted from workers so far, when such money was deducted and why the money has not been remitted.

The Committee also asked the Accountant General to remit all deductions of the Housing fund to the Federal Mortgage Bank with immediate effect and present receipt to the committee.
