The head of the procurement unit at the KMC, Abdoulie Janneh, provided it on Tuesday during his second time of appearance before commissioners.
Janneh was asked about the contracts awarded to five companies to do debt recovery collection for KMC. “They did not advertise it, and it did not go to GPPA for approval,” he told commissioners.
The procurement boss said everything was done within the KMC, adding that the contract was not proper since the procurement rules were flouted. He also stated that the idea came from Sheriff Njie, the director of finance, and the finance unit spearheaded everything concerning the contracts.
Janneh was also questioned about the contract to Senghore Law Practice, a legal firm contracted by the KMC. He said he was not aware of it, and that no one has ever told him anything relating to that contract.
He would reappear again on another day scheduled by the Commission to provide details over a series of issues of concern.
