The Jigawa State Public Complaints and Anti-Corruption Commission (PCACC) has recovered N300 million embezzled funds in the last six months.

Its Chairman, Mr Salisu Abdu told journalists in Dutse on Wednesday, that the agency received and resolved 200 complaints since inception in 2022.

“We have dual functions of attending to public complaints and investigating corrupt practices.

“I’m happy to say that within the period under review, we’ve won the public confidence, we received over 200 complaints and 75 per cent were resolved.

“We’ve also recovered public fund more than N300 million from 2024 to date. This is also another milestone,” he said.

He said the commission also invited five former and serving council chairmen for questioning, stressing that it has the mandate to invite any person found wanting for breach of public trust.

“It is not about those who left office, any person found wanting in breach of public procurement process, rules and regulations or anything.

“It is part of our mandate; it is not all about arrest, ours is invitation, we invite people when we have reasonable suspicion of involvement in alleged corrupt practices or any breach of public process,” he said.

The chairman said that land matters was a source of concern to the commission, as it constituted 75 per cent of the resolved cases.
