The fraud and corruption saga was uncovered following an audit which report the National Society received with dismay and extends further apologies for the loss of US$2.7 million in Liberia. The President’s Office then set up a steering committee who introduced a transition plan and interim management team to salvage and stabilize the situation. The interim management team headed by the Independent Interim Chief Executive Officer commissioned an audit and management investigation into the fraud and corruption saga in December 2016. In June 2017, the Secretariat General of the National Society was recruited. Meanwhile, the Society again takes this opportunity to appreciate the government of Liberia, the partners and communities across Liberia for the level of support continuously rendered the National Red Cross.
