ABSTRACT
The central idea of this study was to find out the impact of
public accountings (including bursars of unity schools) in the implementation
of accountability, probity and transparency in the federal civil service, using
the federal ministry of education Abuja as a case study. In the literature
review, a lot of government publications and other related materials were
consulted. This review was able to define who a public accounta.nt is as well
as their role and problems. A public accountant is a person or employee in the
public sector who works in the accounts division of any government organization
which covers ministry and extra-ministerial department including parastatals at
both state and• federal levels. Decree No. 43 of 1988 on professionalism
further divided public accounting into three categories: - i) The
non-professional cadre's covers accounting officers who rose through the ranks
from GLO4 to GL14 as their peak; ii) The professional cadre's covers accounting
officers who pass through the four walls of tertiary institutions and who read
accounting related courses. Their grade covers: GLO8? iii) Other super
professional cadre includes the professors of accountancy in the universities
who trained in the field.
