Mporokoko Member of Parliament Hon Brian Mundubile has challenged Minister Of Youth, Sports and Arts Elvis Nkandu to tell the nation how much he benefited from the Fuel Tankers meant for the Youths.

This follows the disappearance of the Director of Kapesika who is reported to have left the country with Millions of dollars, proceeds from the Tankers.

KAPESIKA is a company that was key to the running of the fuel Tankers.

Hon Mundubile said what remains unclear is that there has been no accountability for the money that these tankers have been making for the past four years.

He  said the President must therefore take interest in what is happening at the Ministry of Youth, Sports and Arts.

Hon Mundubile said he is aware that at some point, the operations of these tankers were stopped as a scheme so that they confuse Audit trail.

He said the Anti-Corruption Commission must get involved and take interest in what has happened to the revenue and income generated by these tankers.

“There is a well researched programme we left, that youths could get involved in the energy sector as transporters. A number of fuel tankers were procured for our Youths to transport fuel.  When you came into power, they confiscated those tankers, and found out that later,  bought some more tankers to their youths and later gave these tankers that earlier benefited.

We are aware that one gentleman who was central to this operation left this country. There has been no mention.

The Minister of Youth must come clean and tell us how this person left the country. Let the Minister of Youth and Sports come clear and tell us how he benefited from the proceeds of these tankers. Why is it that an individual who left this country with Millions of dollars belonging to the youths, and the Ministry left his country quietly.

And Hon Mundubile said government must attach some seriousness to this matter.

“What does the Hon Minister know about the disappearance of this individual. There was a bounty of K2 million placed on JJ. There is a gentleman who runs away with a lot of money. We challenge the Minister of Youth to tell the nation how he benefited from the money that came from  the fuel tankers,” he said.

Hon Mundubile said the Anti-Corruption Commission must investigate and tell the country how the Officials from the Ministry of Youth benefited.

“By now. The youths that took those tankers are supposed to own those tankers in full. Why does Government still got interest, Hon Elvis Nkandun should tell the country what he knows about the disappearance of the Director of Kapesika, “ he said.
