MWANZA City Council is among the local authorities with the worst record in embezzlement of public funds which derail implementation of set development projects.
Mwanza Regional Commissioner (RC), Mr
John Mongela, said this here when speaking to MCC officials and staff
during his familiriasation tour. He said because of fraud and theft of
public money, some government officials have migrated to other parts of
the country.
“MCC is among local authorities leading
in misuse of government funds,” he charged. “Let me warn you that a
person is caught misusing MCC funds I will deal him or her squarely,” he
added. Mongela said it is showing honesty if people are fulfilling
their responsibilities in compliance with standing regulations.
“I’ll never tolerate civil servants
staling government money,” he emphasised. He urged MCC workers to be
diligent by adhering to professionalism in their day-to-day activities.
“The president has shown us how diligent worker behaves.
Let’s emulate him of whatever he is
doing,” he said. “Let me tell you, President Magufuli government will
never tolerate lazy, incompetent and dishonest workers. This you should
understand as no stone would be left unturned,” he said.
Mongela said since he was transferred
from Kagera Region, he has discovered that land department is among
sectors with many disputes. He pledged to address these disputes and
take remedial measures, including the sacking of corrupt and dishonest
officials.
“I promise I’ll work on the land disputes in Ilemela Municipality and Mwanza City to ensure that people get justice,” he said
