Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>Worker\u2019s Compensation Fund Control Board (WCFCB) has fired three more senior managers on corruption allegations. In a memorandum addressed to the workers yesterday, seen by Mwebantu, WCFCB Acting Commissioner and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Patrick Siampwili said after disciplinary hearings, management decided to separate the officers.<\/p>\n

The officers fired include director investment Frank Chanda, manager for human resource and administration Chipoya Chiponda and manager procurement and supplies James Kapila.<\/p>\n

\u201cKindly be informed that following the disciplinary hearings held on July 22 this year, the staff committee resolved to separate the senior management officials from the Board\u2019s services with the effect from August, 2022,\u201d Siampwili said.<\/p>\n

Early this month, the Board announced the dismissal of Chief Executive Officer Priscilla Bwembya following the investigations into the procurement of 39 motor vehicles during the 2021 campaigns.<\/p>\n

In a memorandum addressed to the workers, the Board of Directors said the termination of employment for Bwembya comes after disciplinary hearing on charges levelled against her.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlease be informed that following disciplinary hearing by Workers Compensation Board of Directors on charges leveled against Bwembya, the Board has terminated her services with effect from July 21st, this year,\u201d reads the memo in parts. In June this year, the Drug Enforcement Commission (DEC) released 30 vehicles belonging to WCFCB which were deemed to be proceeds of crime.<\/p>\n

In a media statement issued, DEC public relations officer, Mathias Kamanga said it was alleged that a fleet of motor vehicles had been procured fraudulently and that the motor vehicles were being used for campaigns by a named political party during the run-up to the August 12, 2021 general elections.<\/p>\n
