    "content": "I am speaking as the Chairman of Orange Democratic Movement Party, which is one of the largest parties in this country in terms of membership and in terms of elected Members. I am also speaking as one who is deeply involved in management of resources of that particular political party. It makes sense to be prudent in managing finances. Political parties compete to form the Government. There is no way you can convince us that you can run a Government if you cannot demonstrate prudent financial management of resources that are allocated to that political party. On that breath, I confirm that my party has faithfully, almost every year, beaten the deadline. In fact, in the financial year that ended 30th June 2018, we managed to beat the deadline of September of submitting our audited accounts to the Office of the Auditor-General. We are doing that as a sign of responsibility. I encourage all political parties that benefit from public funds in whatever manner, even if they are not getting the money directly from the Political Parties Fund, to demonstrate prudent financial management and submit audited accounts to the Office of the Auditor-General in time and have them audited and answer audit queries as and when they are asked to do so."
