INEC Chair Urges Cooperative to Reject Corruption

INEC Chairman, Prof. Joash Amupitan, has cautioned the leadership of the Commission’s Staff Multi-Purpose Cooperative Society to maintain transparency, integrity, and full accountability in managing members’ funds. Speaking at the group’s AGM and election, he stressed strict financial discipline, open records, and zero tolerance for corruption, noting that mismanaging savings betrays the collective trust on which co-operatives rely.

Amupitan urged the incoming executives to prioritise members’ welfare—especially amid economic hardship—and guarantee fair access to loans and benefits. He reminded them that cooperative funds must be used for productive ventures only, and emphasised fairness, equity, and adherence to the society’s rules to secure its long-term stability.
