A Civil Society Organisation( CSO), Alliance for Credible Elections (ACE),  has alleged that  a total of 182 constituency projects approved in the 2015 fiscal year  cannot be traced.
The group said the projects which allegedly gulped  N2 billion were purportedly  sited  in the six States of  Benue, Imo, Ekiti, Jigawa, Cross River, and Gombe, noting that the six states were selected to represent each of the geo-political zone.
Acting General Secretary of the group, Mma Odi, stated this in Abuja, while presenting a-152 page report on budget tracking of the 2015 budget by her organisation.
Odi said the report would be presented to the leadership of the National Assembly to aide it in its oversight function.
She explained that the budget tracking project was aimed at  promoting citizens’ participation in the fight against corruption and good governance in the country.
