Abdullahi explained that the implementation of the TSA by Kebbi State is one of the conditions for accessing the budget support facility offered by the Federal Government.

“As part of the implementation process, the Ministry of Finance requested all deposit money banks in the state, and confirmed balances of all accounts of MDAs, and therefore the account were pruned in order to enable the Ministry of Finance have a clear over view of their operations,” he added.

The Permanent Secretary listed two TSA models that can be adopted states, one being the main TSA and associated ledger sub-accounts to be maintained in a single banking institution. The other one is that TSA maintained in a single banking institution and associated zero balance ledger sub-accounts (ZBAs) are maintained in other institutions from where balances are swept daily to the main TSA in the CBN.

He listed the benefits of implementing TSA in the state to include the reduction of corruption, blocking of leakages in internal revenue generation and remittance, entrenching accountability, enhancing transparency avoiding misappropriation of public funds and embezzlement.
