NetOne board members face Sacu probe

FORMER NetOne chief executive Lazarus Muchenje has written to the Special Anti-Corruption Unit (Sacu) requesting that it launches a probe against the telecommunications firm’s board members.

Muchenje, who has been battling to retain his job at the government-owned firm, wrote to Sacu on March 22, 2021 alleging that board members Beaula Chirume and Susan Mutangadura had unscrupulously appointed Raphael Mushanawani to a non-existent post within the parastatal.

“Dr Beaula Chirume and Ms Susan Mutangadura, as committee members of the NetOne human resources board committee, appointed Raphael Mushanawani to a non-existent position through an irregular contract of four months instead of the standard three years or five year NetOne contracts,” Muchenje alleged.
