365Daily – Ebonyi State Governor, David Umahi has ordered the immediate disengagement of the Chairman, Secondary Education Board, Uche Anyim, and other members of the board, on account of fraud uncovered during their time in office.
This was contained in a statement made available to journalists by Secretary to the State Government and Coordinating Commissioner, Dr Kenneth Ugbala.
“The dissolution is as a result of the fraudulent practices discovered in the administration and management of the Board, where dead persons, persons who have resigned and those that have secured employments in other places, are still in the payroll of the Board and to the full knowledge of some members of the Board.”
It added that all heads of the department of the board have been redeployed to other ministries, departments and agencies and a committee had been set up to audit staff of the board and submit its report.
