ACC Displays 8.6 Billion Leones Recovered in Corruption Probe Involving Ministry of Finance and SLRA Staff
In a noteworthy development, the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) disclosed the recovery of a sum of 8.6 billion old Leones during a press briefing.
This marks a pivotal milestone in an alleged corruption case involving personnel from the Ministry of Finance and the Sierra Leone Roads Authority (SLRA).
During the briefing, the Commissioner highlighted the scale of the recovery, describing it as a substantial amount embezzled by individuals under investigation at the SLRA.
Six individuals implicated in the case openly admitted to their involvement in the embezzlement and voluntarily reimbursed the state while under detention pending further investigations.
The Commissioner stated, “It’s indeed a sea of money recovered from the corrupt who had embezzled it in one of the cases we are investigating at the SLRA. Six people admitted to stealing it and paid it back to the state, having been detained for their crime pending investigations.”
The total recovered amount in this particular case alone amounts to a staggering 8.6 billion Leones.
Just imagine this is for junior staffs, imagine what is going on with the high ranking cabinets, members, of course exempted, God will help this nation.
Thank you, commissioner, but these are old currency notes that are no longer accepted as legal tender in the economy. So what’s in here?
The best ACC ever in the history of Sierra Leone, keep it up sir.
God will bless our honest people working at ACC to recover so much amount. Every one will be recovered in Jesus’ mighty name, amen.
Can’t believe if this kind of money is in this country, every day sierra Leone people are crying with hunger
Guys this are new notes can’t you see
God will surely ponish them.
