Local Government Authorities have authority of collecting and spending public
funds, also are responsible for delivering public services such as Primary education,
Secondary education, Local health services, Agriculture extension and live stock,
Water supply and Local road maintenance. Financial management is very important
to LGAs in order to convince the public that their funds are properly used according
to laws and regulations governing the authorities.
The general objective of the study is to assess the performance of financial
management system in Local authorities; the study made an investigation into the
areas of internal financial management in Bahi District Council and the causes of it.
The study examined the financial management system existing in the council, the
budgeting system, Revenue collection and how the internal audit unit functions. The
study involved questionnaires and interviews with different respondents, the
respondent included Council staffs, Councilors, NGOs and general Public. Basing on
findings BDC is performing well in exercising strong internal control and maintaining
its budget although there are some weaknesses to be rectified. On other side the
researcher observed that the BDC does not comply with laws and regulations.
Also is highly recommended that the BDC should ensure that its laws and regulations
are knows by the council staffs, this will help them to be aware with their council.
