(A CASE STUDY OF UNION BANK PLC IN ENUGU STATE)

By

ONU JULIUS TOCHUKWU

Presented To

Department of Accountancy

ABSTRACT

The researcher went through the relevant sections of the constitution relating to audit and it was found that the constitution confers a total independence on audit department. This has offered the audit department to report its findings without fear or favour. It could also be established that the practice of fraud and misappropriation of public fund and property can be corrected by monitoring as campaign against it and giving the director of audit the power to implement audit reports. It could also be established that one of the objectives of the internal auditor is to ensure that the accounts show a true and fair view. It could also be established that an auditor is guiltily of negligence, when he is supposed to do something by virtue of the authority vested in him, and he does not do it, he is guilty of negligence. But whereby he has no authority, he is not guilty of negligence to the fraud committed. It could also be established from the review that auditing is a means towards achieving public accountability.
