asking them why they took the
loan and why they applied for it a
month before former head Shirley
Makause was about to go for re-
tirement. What was the motive
behind taking the loan with a head
who was about to go?
“The constitution highlights that
the head is the chief accounting
officer responsible for the money
which is being used at the school.
She was gone after the money was
taken, who then was responsib-
le for taking care of the money?
In their income and expenditu-
re for 2019, the money was not
accounted for. Have you ever
seen a loan money being recorded
as lab levy? That’s ridiculous.

Ndarama High parents called for
external auditors to intervene on
the issue as looting of funds that
have been for long is suspected to
have taken place.
The parents also called for the
suspension of the bursar Henry

that he sexually abused a pupil in
