Background of the Study
Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) play a critical role in the development of local communities, particularly in sectors such as education, health, and infrastructure. In Oyun Local Government Area, numerous NGOs are involved in delivering essential services aimed at improving the living standards of local populations. However, effective monitoring of NGO projects is essential to ensure that funds are utilized efficiently, and that the projects meet their intended goals. External auditing provides an independent and objective review of these projects, offering stakeholders confidence in the financial integrity and operational transparency of NGOs. This study examines the role of external auditing in monitoring NGO projects in Oyun Local Government Area and assesses its effectiveness in ensuring financial accountability and transparency.
