Former State House Press Officer Gerald Viola has been fired as Deputy Chief Executive Officer at National Food Reserve Agency (NFRA).
This has been confirmed in a letter dated November 16, 2020 made available to faceofmalawi.
According to the letter, Viola has been dismissed after a disciplinary committee found him guilty of serious misconduct on the allegation that he single-handedly issued a Local Purchase Order worth K3.3 billion to Missie’s Trading to supply 10,000 metric tonnes of strategic Grain Reserve maize to NFRA.
NFRA officials have confirmed the development.
