State loses billions with extinct Security House unit

Menongue – The Angolan State lost over 167 billion kwanzas, fraudulently, with the extinct unit of the Security House, in Cuando Cubango province, from 2003 to 2021.

The information was made public Friday in Menongue, capital of Cuando Cubango province, by the Minister of State and head of the Military House of the President of the Republic, Francisco Pereira Furtado, when explaining the deactivation, in 2021, of the unit.

He added that the unit used 1.38 billion kwanzas monthly to pay salaries.

The closure resulted from a study by the Attorney General’s Office, which led to the freezing of accounts and consequent registration of personnel in order to prove who were actually military personnel.

From the 3,007 staff members who earned salaries, only 234 were reinstated, of which 91 are environmental inspectors, who the Military House continues to pay salaries and provide logistics and all the benefits.
