The NLB challenges NGOs to produce evidence of corruption and/or irregularities against it

The National Lotteries Board (NLB) has challenged NGOs and other organisations which protested at its offices to produce evidence of any corruption or irregularities at the board.

NLB chairperson, Alfred Nevhutanda, points out that, “We must be clear what the audit report they are calling for means, because we are a public entity and we are audited internally and by the Auditor-General (A-G).

Nevhutanda says that the A-G report highlighted many of factors but it never called for any forensic audit to be undertaken.

His comments come after nearly 450 members of various NGOs marched to the NLB offices to hand in a memorandum about their grievances.
