The Accountant General, Jean Munyenyembe, has left the country without taking leave of office of the Secretary for President and Cabinet (SPC) as fiscal police are investigating her office for irregular transactions.
A senior official from the office of the President and Cabinet (OPC) has described the incident as irregular since all principal secretaries are expected to inform the SPC when they undertake a trip outside the country.
Munyenyembe did not respond to our question on whether she sought permission to leave the country.
Secretary to Treasury Mafuta Mwale while he could not indicate if he was officially informed of the trip said that Munyenyembe is in Kenya and expected back home soon.
