Transparency International Zambia-TIZ- has expressed concern with the decision by the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) to withhold details of their concluded investigations into allegations of corruption leveled against two Cabinet Ministers.
TIZ president Lee Habasonda has observed that it is surprising that the ACC could remain silent on the matter when it has indicated in a letter of reply to the organisation implying that the Justice Minister Wynter Kabimba and his Defence counterpart Geoffrey Mwamba were cleared of allegations of corruption.
Mr. Habasonda has however disclosed to Qfm in an interview that his organization has been studying the letter of reply by the ACC that was sent to the TIZ on 5th March.
He said the TIZ will within two weeks from now convene a board meeting to discuss the letter and thereafter reply back to the ACC to confirm whether it is satisfied with the ACC’s explanation on the matter or not.
The TIZ had recently written to the ACC demanding an explanation on the circumstances that led to the clearing of the two cabinet Ministers.
Meanwhile, when contacted for a comment acting ACC Spokesperson Queen Chibwe maintained that the ACC will soon make its position known on the matter.
