“Investigate Allegations Against Kumasi Head” -SIC Workers

In the interest of accountability and probity, the management and staff of the State Insurance Company (SIC) Limited are urging its Board of Directors, to as a matter of urgency, investigate all allegations of financial misappropriation against the head of the company in Kumasi, Lydia Lariba Bawa (Miss).
According to the concerned workers, the company’s Kumasi Area Manager, Ms. Bawa, has been cited in a newspaper report to have engaged in some financial malfeasance and gross abuse of office, and it is just prudent that the various allegations be looked into so as to ascertain their veracity.
Pleading anonymity, the leader of the group indicated to The Informer that the Kumasi Area Manager, even before the said media reports, has come up as one of those who have been milking the coffers of the SIC Company, through all forms of malfeasance, and so therefore, ought to be investigated.
“It’s sad that till date our Board of Directors has not taken any step to have the numerous allegations leveled against Miss Bawa investigated, yet has the proclivity to interfere in the operations of the various departmental heads’ affairs, to the extent of reversing staff transfers”; one of the concerned workers has pointed out.
“In fact, the Board of Directors must do something to allay the fears of shareholders, by investigating the issues raised against Miss Bawa, particularly, those that bother on financial malfeasance, like the illegal claims reported by the media”; another top management staff added.
According to them, they have picked up credible information, that, Miss Bawa has applied for the position of Managing Director (MD) of the company, when it was recently advertised, and that she can only be considered if she is cleared of all the stinking allegations leveled against her.
Though, The Informer will not be in haste to pass judgment as result of the series of bad media publicity coming the way of Miss Lydia Bawa, we are humbly calling on the Max Cobbina Board to investigate all allegations made against the Kumasi Area Manager, either to clear her of wrong doing, or she be made to face the full rigors of the law, if found culpable, in order to safeguard the company’s clientele base.
