Chairman of the committee, Ugonna Ozurigbo, in his opening remarks, noted that the business of government cannot be run in a vacuum and that budget approval is critical to good governance, “therefore, this exercise should be given the necessary importance that it deserve as we solicit your maximum cooperation and total disclosure of all material facts.”
