Gbarnga, Bong County – The Bong Legislative Caucus has suspended two members of the county’s project management committee on charges of unauthorized payments against the decision of the November 18, 2019 County Council Sitting, overpaying contractors and overpaying staffers of the Project Management Committee. The caucus took the decision to suspend the chair of the Project Management Committee Steve Mulbah and Comptroller Abraham Kollie on October 8 following its emergency meeting. We should not be using the social development funds as a cash cow while several abandoned projects left to decay,” Sulunteh said. The caucus, through its secretary Marvin Cole, lawmaker of Bong’s District Three, said the two PMC members remain suspended until audits are conducted on the social development fund. The decision by a faction of caucus members to request for an audit of the County Social Development Fund has been condemned by residents of the county.
