Illegal auction of World Bank donations

The Criminal Investigation Department (CID) is presently inquiring into the alleged illegal sale of World Bank properties donated to the Freetown Waste Management Company (FWMC).

Information gathered by this press is that Finance Officer of FWMC, Desmond Lewis, and two others sold one front wheel loader and one bulldozer machine donated by  World Bank.

Reports indicate that the vehicles were sold at Le 19,000,000 to people dealing scrap metals.

These equipments were parked at the demolished City Hall vicinity and so many others are equally also being sold by Desmond Lewis and cronies.

Lewis was denied the position of protocol officer to the Mayor of the Freetown City Council but was apparently appointed finance officer at FWMC by the same Mayor Gibson before his departure to South Africa in June of this year.

Tools and equipment belonging to FWMC have been reported missing during Desmond’s tenure of office as finance officer and some more items worth millions have been discovered missing but no action has been taken by the company.

The police have so far refused to comment on the outcome of their investigations.
