The former MP, Arif al-Hamami, called on Thursday for the formation of a high-level national committee to audit all contracts concluded by local governments in recent years, warning of suspected financial and administrative corruption that could reveal “major surprises.”
Speaking to Al-Maalomah, al-Hamami said, “The scourge of corruption necessitates a firm response through a clear and systematic plan based on forming a high-level committee to audit all files and contracts concluded by local governments in various service sectors over the past years.”
He added, “There are suspicions of financial and administrative corruption that may surprise the public,” emphasizing “the need to address the issue of inflated project costs and adopt clear and transparent mechanisms to resolve it.”
Al-Hamami stressed that “corruption has devoured enormous sums of the people’s resources for many years,” explaining that “combating corruption in local governments in the provinces represents the right start to cutting off this scourge, which has spared no department or institution.”
He concluded by saying that “combating corruption requires a clear vision and a comprehensive action plan to ensure accountability and fairness.”
