The Tanzanian government has approved the move by the Prevention and Combating of Corruption Bureau (PCCB) to investigate the alleged misuse of funds, meant for the preparations of the 2019 U17 Afcon tournament.
Through their Director John Mbungo, PCCB confirmed on Saturday they had launched investigations on how the 1bn/, donated by President John Pombe Magufuli as well as other funds from stakeholders were spent.
Tanzania were the hosts of the tournament and according to Mbungo, they have already collected enough evidence about the misuse of the funds, and as such the concerned individuals will be summoned for further questioning.
