PRESIDENT Mugabe has appointed Police Senior Assistant Commissioner Silence Pondo as Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission Secretary with effect from last Monday.
Zacc human resources and administration chair Commissioner Farai Chinyani said Snr Asst Comm Pondo was appointed by the President after due process. She said he was one of 20 candidates interviewed by the anti-graft body for the job, after which six names were short-listed.
‘‘All the paperwork and evidence is available to prove due process was followed,” said Comm Chinyani.
She said Zacc had since written to Police Commissioner-General Augustine Chihuri to effect Snr Asst Comm Pondo’s transfer to the anti graft body.
The senior cop was seconded to Zacc as acting secretary two years ago after Mr Ngonidzashe Gumbo was fired over a US$400 000 scandal.
“The top six candidates with all their vetting and interview results were submitted to the Office of the President and Cabinet. Mr Pondo was then approved as the substantive Secretary.
As Zacc, we can authoritatively say Mr Pondo passed the security vetting and we have documents to prove it.” sunday mail
