Background of the Study
Rural development projects are essential for improving the living standards of people in rural areas. These projects often involve significant public funds and are aimed at improving infrastructure, health services, education, and agricultural productivity. However, these projects are vulnerable to financial mismanagement, corruption, and inefficient allocation of resources. To mitigate such risks and ensure that the projects achieve their intended goals, auditing practices play a vital role.
Auditing practices involve the systematic examination of financial records and operations to verify compliance with established standards, identify irregularities, and assess the efficiency of fund utilization. In Giwa Local Government Area, auditing plays a critical role in monitoring and evaluating the financial management of rural development projects. However, the effectiveness of auditing in these projects has not been fully explored, and this study aims to assess the current auditing practices and their impact on project outcomes in Giwa Local Government Area.
