Led by Chief Executive Officer George Nyaory, the NCS management was questioned over several issues, including the absence of an asset register, the management of a Sh50 million staff mortgage fund and broader governance challenges. The Committee heard that the Secretariat has operated without a governing board since it became operational in February 1999. The Committee also scrutinised the management of Sh50 million allocated in 2022 to establish a staff mortgage scheme. Vice Chairperson and Sabaoti MP Caleb Hamisi questioned the management on how it had maintained staff morale under such circumstances. “My role is to identify your shortcomings as brought out in the audit report,” Wangwe said.
