The acting chief of Quinga
Administrative Post, who also serves as the director of a secondary school, has
been accused of allegedly abusing his position of authority to defraud, intimidate
and threaten citizens.
According to local sources,
there have been several cases in which the official allegedly obtained money
from different individuals, including substantial sums borrowed as loans that
have reportedly not yet been repaid.
The official has been in
charge of the administrative post since March, when the substantive post chief
went on leave. Subsequently, reports emerged that she had retired. This
situation has reportedly continued to raise concerns among residents due to the
absence of a formally appointed replacement.
Residents have expressed
dissatisfaction with the situation and have blamed the district government for
the alleged delay in appointing a new head of the administrative post. They
believe that the person currently in charge lacks the necessary qualifications
to manage the institution effectively.
According to the same
sources, the acting administrative post chief has allegedly requested financial
contributions from public servants, traders and community leaders, supposedly
to cover expenses associated with official visits. However, the complainants
claim that, after approximately two months, further contributions were
requested before the previously announced visit had even taken place.
Alleged financial demands linked
to the FDL
The official is also accused
of demanding money from individuals who benefited from funding under the Local
Development Fund (FDL). According to the accounts provided, the amounts
allegedly demanded were higher than the sums received by the beneficiaries.
Some individuals further
claim that when they attempt to recover money owed to them, the official
threatens them and allegedly invokes his position of authority to avoid
immediate repayment.
The allegations also include
claims that the official has instructed fellow teachers at Quinga’s primary and
secondary schools to address him as the “acting chief of the administrative
post” rather than as a school director.
This situation has
reportedly contributed to growing dissatisfaction among some education
professionals and members of the local community.
Residents call for
leadership changes
In response to these
concerns, residents say they are awaiting a meeting with the district
administrator or provincial governor to present their grievances and request
the immediate replacement of the current acting official.
The population has also
expressed concern over the official’s alleged attempts to take charge of
several sectors within the administrative post. According to the complainants,
this raises questions about the distribution of responsibilities and the proper
functioning of local institutions.
The allegations have not yet
been independently verified, and no official response from the individual
concerned or the relevant authorities has been included in the information
available. (BP)
