3 More Suspended Over Food Scandal in Caprivi: "The latest suspensions follow that of Chief Regional Officer Raymond Matiti in February, who is still awaiting a disciplinary hearing.
Before that, Caprivi Governor Bernard Sibalatani was suspended for a month on the instructions of Cabinet, to allow him to be charged for negligence.
He has since returned to office.
The Ministry of Regional and Local Government, Housing and Rural Development earlier said that any action against him would be based on the outcome of disciplinary proceedings against the other officials accused of negligence in the food scandal and on instructions from Cabinet.
Only one more official is still to be suspended on charges of alleged negligence by the Local Government Ministry.
He is Dobson Kamwi, an official working in the Ministry's Rural Development directorate at Katima Mulilo.
Ndiyepa said Kamwi would be the last on the list of officials the Caprivi Regional Council had agreed to take action against for allowing 230 tons of maize meal to rot at the M'pacha military warehouse."
