The Auditor General, Junias Kandjeke, is calling for stronger government accountability when it comes to the usage of taxpayers' money.

Auditor-General Junias Kandjeke has sent a stern warning about serious rule-breaking in Namibia's gold-mining industry, calling into question how well the sector is monitored and how open its dealings really are. 

The Auditor General, Junias Kandjeke, has questioned why ministers as appointing authorities of boards are not held accountable, as boards are, when they fail to fully execute their mandate in regard to auditing compliance.

The National Assembly has unanimously approved the reappointment of Junias Kandjeke for another 5-year term.

The re-appointment of Kandjeke was recommended by President Hage Geingob and motivated by Prime Minister Saara Kuugongelwa-Amadhila in the National Assembly today (Tue).
