Constitutional & Legal Mandate:Invoked constitutional oversight provisions, the Council of Representatives Law, and official audit reports from the Federal Board of Supreme Audit.<\/p>\n

Call for Anti-Corruption Action:Demanded an immediate administrative investigation by the Ministry of Finance and formal referral to the Federal Integrity Commission to hold negligent entities and executive leadership legally accountable.<\/p>\n
