Abstract
This study was generally designed to the role of internal auditor in preventing fraud in government parastatal. It had 3 specific objectives, 3 research questions and 2 hypotheses. Simple random sampling technique was used to select 200 respondents from Ogun State Ministry of Works and Housing. A self – structured questionnaire, using a four-point modified Likert a scale was the instrument for data collection. 168 respondents that correctly completed and returned their questionnaire formed the sample size for the study. While mean was employed in data analysis chi-square was used to test the postulated hypothesis. The study found, among other things, that in spite of availability of adequate punishments, they were not effectively applied across boards for violations of internal audit procedures. It concluded that efforts should be geared towards updating the knowledge of internal auditors rather than engaging in interminable search for error-proof internal audit procedures. The study recommended a thorough and transparent recruitment process for internal audits.
