Hon. Ella Esinam Christine Nongo, Municipal Chief Executive for Adentan, has underscored the importance of accountability, transparency and prudent financial management in local governance.
Speaking at the 2024 Public Financial Management Compliance League Table findings dialogue held Tuesday at the Institute of Local Governance in Madina, Nongo said, “Today is not about numbers or rankings; it’s about accountability, transparency and our shared commitment to responsible governance.”
The PFMCLT assesses public institutions’ compliance with financial management regulations and offers a clear picture of progress in promoting transparency and ensuring public funds serve citizens.
The MCE commended all institutions represented at the dialogue for their efforts, calling the meeting an opportunity for honest reflection, shared learning and renewed commitment.
She stressed that assemblies must treat every cedi allocated as a resource for development and the well-being of the people.
Hon. Nongo also praised the Ministry of Finance, the Local Government Service and other key stakeholders for producing the PFMCLT report and enhancing financial governance across the country.
The event brought together local government officials, financial administrators, assembly members and development partners to discuss challenges, celebrate achievements and chart a course for improved financial governance.
