“The dissolution is as a result of the fraudulent practices discovered in the administration and management of the Board, where dead persons, persons who have resigned and those that have secured employments in other places, are still in the payroll of the Board and to the full knowledge of some members of the Board.
All heads of the department of the board have been redeployed to other ministries, departments and agencies.
A committee has been set up to audit staff of the board and submit its report.
