Monrovia – FrontPageAfrica’s investigation reveals that at least three of President George Weah’s second batch of appointees were accused by the Special Presidential Task Force (SPTF) of misappropriating public fund and were asked to restitute said amounts. Parleh Harris was listed by Koffa's SPTF and was asked to restitute funds into the Liberian government’s coffers or risk prosecution. The Assistant Finance Minister-designate for Budget, Mr. Jesse B. Korboi’s name was included among those, who allegedly took money illegally from the Private Sector Development Initiative (PSDI). He clarified that at no time did the audit report indicate that they were part of the loan borrowers. Also the Deputy Finance Minister-designate for Administration, Yvette Freeman, was also mentioned in the PAC report, which implicated some government ministries and agencies including the National Port Authority (NPA) for alleged acts of corruption.
