Harare City Council investigates two managers

HARARE City Council (HCC) is currently investigating allegations of corruption, including fraudulent payments, against its acting finance director Stanley Ndemera and Harare water finance manager Mabhena Moyo.

According to recent audit committee minutes, it was recommended that Ndemera and Moyo be held accountable for negligence in the performance of their duties.

“Ndemera and Moyo are to be held accountable for negligence in the performance of their duties when they authorised two internal transfers emanating from colour photo amounting to ZWL 11 804.00 and ZWL 16 349.00.”

According to HCC committee minutes, the two are said to have authorised the release of ZWL7 750.08 to one Tungwarara, including a cheque of undisclosed amount in the name of Davis Granite for the supply of quarry dust.

Last month, Ndemera was also embroiled in a land scam, amid allegations of ‘double dipping’ after he tried to sell a piece of land located at Stand 413340, corner Sam Nujoma and Cork Road in Belgravia, to the National Oil Infrastructure Company, Zim Morning Post can reveal.

HCC said disciplinary procedures against the employees had already commenced.
