FAZ requests FIFA to carry out forensic audit of Football House

Share

FAZ will hold an extraordinary council meeting after FIFA has carried out a forensic audit of Football House.

Football House has decided to carry out an audit dating back to 2012 following leaked financial statements to a clique that is engaged in a protracted standoff with FAZ president Andrew Kamanga.

“The FAZ Executive Committee has decided to call for an Extraordinary Council Meeting at which the findings of the FIFA Forensic Audit will be tabled,” acting FAZ general secretary Adrian Kashala said.

“FAZ has requested FIFA to carry out a Forensic Audit for the period 2012 to 2017 to ascertain FAZ revenue and expenditure which may not have been accounted for including the recently unauthorized circulated financial documents.”

The audit will cover expenses and bonuses paid out to the previous executive after Chipolopolo’s 2012 AFCON triumph and 2013 COSAFA Cup win as hosts including all international engagements during the last seven years.

“The dates for the Extraordinary Council Meeting will be advised in due course,” Kashala said.

“FAZ wishes to reiterate its commitment toward transparency and accountability in running the affairs of the Zambian game and re-affirms its duty to its partners of upholding the highest levels of integrity including confidentiality where it is pledged.”

  1. Kamanga thought he was smart and humble when he decided not take any issues to ACC when he took over from the Great Galu’s administration now he looks fooolish…really laughable.

  2. Great that’s the way to go Andrew. Well done. Lets see what Kalusha got after the 2012 AFCON win and how much was spent by FAZ on Kalu’s accommodation when ever he came to Zambia for faz duties. Remember Kalu leaved in South Africa throughout his tenure as faz president which was very costly. We know that his relatives and children were being accommodated at Pamodzi Hotel at the expense of faz. The audit will reveal everything. Transparency at its best.

  3. Comment on the present issue concerning yourself administration first. Don’t play clean by dragging us to 2012 and then what? Arrest them? Non starter make things work out now than running away from the present corruption. You already know there was abuse then what? Zambia is a failed state. You are equally corrupt. Leave the FAZ better that you found it if you are a genuine president.

  4. That is why we don’t advance we spend so much time in witch hunting in the mean time soccer standards are declining, you are wasting your time you should have done this immediately you took over office. Bwafya this administration? And you think calling Fifa auditors will make you clean when you just gave yourselves big salaries you do not even deserve.

  5. Kamanga stop baiting corruption by running your company in parallel to FAZ but better than FAZ while being paid by FAZ then using your company to borrow money to FAZ……stinks of corruption from the backdoor…..

  6. I feel this is shallow think from the Kamanga administration. How do you carry an audit now after you have been exposed. You have to carry the audit from were you started , and not now. The moment you received the handover notes, you were supposed to constitute an audit committee or appoint an independent audit firm to do the work. Kwana Uwawa tabula Akabepesho!

  7. Good move though i am skeptical. Trying to audit the previous admin when you are two years in yo tenure. Why didn’t u call for forensic audit immediately you took over office so that you know how much you’re left with and how much debt you owe. What is this 2012 audit intending to achieve? Why not starting from the time you took over?
