Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>CRIMINALS in the UPND are scheming to affect an arrest on the Auditor General Dick Sichembe to stop him from revealing the 2022 Audit Report which exposes glaring and grave abuse of public funds.<\/p>\n

Patriotic Front (PF) Chairperson for Information and Publicity, Raphael Nakachiinda says the Auditor General is being threatened with an arrest because of the grave revelations in the 2022 Auditors Report which is yet to be released.<\/p>\n

Nakachiinda reveals that among the pressing issues in the report are the audit query of the Ministry of Defence and illegal cancellation of hunting concessions.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the Lusaka Magistrate Court grounds, Monday, the former Minister also revealed what he described as tribal cleansing in various government departments and ministries targeted at those belonging to the Northern and Eastern regions.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe auditor general is being threatened with an arrest because there are grave revelations that are contained in the 2022 Auditor General\u2019s Report to do with the auditing of the Defence Forcea, to do with the cancellation of the hunting concessions, to do with the over 400 government workers at the level of Director and Assistant Director that have been relegated to Cabinet office and they have continued to receive salaries without being charged or told the reasons why they are being relegated and surrendered to Cabinet,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He said all he knew and what Zambians should know is that, the act was aimed at tribal cleansing. \u201cWhat we know is that there has been tribal cleansing and the auditor general has been picking those reckless expenditures that we expect that government should answer to. So, what they have revised is now to use bogus allegations against these officers.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nakachiinda has since warned that more revelations are coming of the criminality of the UPND government in a way they have been handling public funds.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey have cleansed the Auditor General\u2019s office, two deputies have already been arrested and removed from office. They are targeting the Auditor General, you are going to see as we move forward, more revelations of the criminality of this government in a way they have been handling public funds. This we should not tolerate. As Zambians, let us wake up,\u201d he said. Dr. Sichembe has since been summoned to appear before ACC.<\/p>\n
