Nawec staff clears his nameFriday, September 03, 2010 One Yunus Bojang, a cashier at the Financial
Department of the National Water and Electricity Company (Nawec), has clarified
that he was not involved in the alleged financial scam uncovered at one of the
nation's most important public institutions. It would be recalled that the Thursday 2nd September edition of Daily Observer reported that at least nine staff of Nawec were allegedly involved in a financial scam amounting to over D1.5 million. Yunus Bojang, who is currently on leave, was named among the seven involved in the alleged scam said to be at large. However, Bojang who walked into the Daily Observer offices yesterday said he is not among the alleged perpetrators. "I am surprised that my name was mentioned in the list involved in the financial scam. I am presently on leave and I have nothing to do with case," he said."I have been and will continue to be a loyal staff of Nawec and nothing will change that," Bojang added. Editor's note: The Daily Observer made several attempts to get the full list of those involved in the financial scam from Nawec's public relations officer but no clear information was given. The Nawec spokesperson only told this paper that the matter was reported to the police and investigations are ongoing. We deeply regret that Yunus Bojang's name was included in the list published, when in actual fact he was not involved. However, the rest of the accused persons in the list were involved. We really appreciate the way Yunus Bojang comported himself when he visited the Observer offices yesterday to clear his name. Any inconvenience caused is deeply regretted.
