He referenced a statement by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) from May 2023, which alleged the theft of N70 billion. Lawal stated that the unaccounted amount was much larger.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The N70 billion mentioned by the EFCC is nothing compared to the N250 billion we found missing when I assumed office,&#8221; Lawal said. &#8220;It was shocking to discover that there was not even N4 million left in the Zamfara State Government&#8217;s account.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lawal also highlighted the state&#8217;s severe financial issues, including a four-month backlog of unpaid salaries.
