PAC orders arrest of Northern Regional Director & Accountant of National Sports Authority for alleged GH¢160,000 misappropriation.

The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) has ordered the arrest of the Northern Regional Director and Accountant of the National Sports Authority for allegedly misappropriating over GH¢160,000 in internally generated funds. The officials were summoned to appear before Parliament but refused, leading the PAC Chairman to direct their immediate arrest. The 2022 Auditor General's report implicates the Northern Regional Management of the Sports Authority for their handling of the funds, which contravenes the Public Financial Management Regulations, 2019.
