Former NetOne boss challenges Auditor General's audit findings

Former NetOne chief executive officer Reward Kangai wrote a letter on June 28, to the Auditor General Mildred Chiri challenging the findings of a report titled  “Provision of Comprehensive Forensic Investigation Services to NetOne Cellular Services”.

Kangai argues that the audit found no evidece of wrongdoing on his part in obtaining Firstel shares. Said Kangai:

I draw your attention to the fact that the report that is attributed to you on NetOne matters is erroneous and I believe that information was provided to the external auditors by the NetOne chief finance officer to further the agenda of supplanting my management team at NetOne. You have a copy of the forensic audit report compiled by PwC and the report found no evidence of wrong-doing on the part of NetOne in obtaining the Firstel shares, an allegation, which was one of the central ostensible reasons for conducting the forensic audit,

Speaking to The Herald, Chiri acknowledged receiving Kangai’s letter and said that they were still discussing a wy forward.
