Ebonyi Governor Sacks Officials For Alleged N1 Billion Fraud


I'm happy to see all of our leaders now taking action and firing people trying to hinder the growth of the nation. Dave Umahi, The Ebonyi State Governor, has allegedly sacked the auditor-general of Local Government Areas of the state, Ambrose Edeh, heads of personnel management, and treasurers of the councils. The sack comes after their indictment by the State House of Assembly for alleged
involvement in the embezzlement of over N1 billion in the local government system within the last six months.The Ebonyi State House of Assembly had already accused the caretaker committee chairmen of the local government areas of financial misappropriation amounting to over N1 billion. In addition, it also accused the heads of personnel management and treasurers of the local government areas of conniving with the council chairmen to loot the treasuries of the various councils. 12 out of the 13 caretaker committee chairmen resigned their appointment last week following the lawmakers’ resolution.
