Chukwulobelu also described a good finical management as one using the government financial regulations to apply through the processes of revenue generation, budgeting, and expenditure, so as to ensure proper value for money.
He emphasized that after the three days programme, the participants should be able to look inward as a way of self examination to identify their deficiencies and take steps to improve on them so as to increase their effectiveness and efficiency.
