Fraud is the intentional
distortion of financial statements or other records by a person (internal or
external) to the organisation which is carried out to conceal the
misappropriation of assets or otherwise for gain"(Adeniji, 2004 and
Institute of chartered Accountant Nigeria-ICAN, 2006). Fraud can also be
defined as involving "the use of deception to obtain an unjust or illegal
financial advantage; intentional misstatement in, or omissions of amounts or
disclosure from an entity's accounting records or financial statements; or
theft whether or not accompanied by misstatements in accounting record or financial
statement.
