Jack Wamboka écarté de la commission des investissements publics

Le député de Bumula, Jack Wamboka, a été écarté de la Commission des investissements publics, un mois après sa suspension suite à des allégations de corruption.

Dans le cadre de remaniements au sein des commissions de l'Assemblée nationale, Wamboka a été transféré à la Commission pour la cohésion nationale et l'égalité des chances. Le député de Luanda, Dick Maungu, devrait être confirmé au poste de nouveau président de la PIC.

Le président de l'Assemblée, Moses Wetang’ula, avait suspendu Wamboka le mois dernier après que la Commission pour la cohésion et l'intégration nationales a affirmé que ses responsables avaient été humiliés et sollicités pour des pots-de-vin. Wamboka a démenti ces accusations, affirmant être sanctionné pour avoir exigé des comptes.

D'autres changements ont touché des alliés de l'ancien vice-président Rigathi Gachagua, notamment John Mukunji et plusieurs députés transférés vers des commissions moins influentes.
