The General Services Agency (GSA) has intensified its nationwide campaign to safeguard government property.
The exercise has completed a comprehensive audit of public assets in Grand Kru County to promote accountability and curb the misuse of state resources.
The assessment, led by GSA Director General Galakpai W. Kortimai, brought on board Superintendent Antoinette Wowlee Nimely, heads of government institutions, and local officials, who verified and documented assets under government control.
The exercise involved inspections of government offices, buildings, equipment and the newly designated parking site for the earth-moving equipment, popularly known as “Yellow Machines.”
Officials said, the audit is part of national effort to establish an accurate inventory of government-owned assets, improve oversight, and ensure that public resources are properly maintained and utilized.
Kortimai said, effective asset management was critical to institute transparency, and efficient public service delivery.
He noted that government institutions must take greater responsibility to protect state-owned property.
Supt. Nimely, earlier welcomed the initiative, which she described as a “significant step to strengthen accountability, and improve coordination among public institutions.”
Information gathered during the audit, Kortima said, will be incorporated into a national asset database to guide future planning, maintenance, and policy decisions concerning government property.
The exercise forms part of a nationwide GSA verification campaign designed to improve asset tracking and reinforce responsible stewardship of public resources.
