GANTA CITY, Nimba County — The General Manager of Jungle Energy Power (JEP), Mr. Alieu Keita, has been accused by workers of engaging in nepotism and tribalism in the management of the institution.
According to a document currently in the possession of Verity News, Mr. Keita allegedly awarded several lucrative and senior departmental positions to individuals believed to be his relatives, including nieces, in-laws, and members of his ethnic group.
The positions cited in the document include, but are not limited to, Head of Power Shift, Head of Payroll, and Head of Procurement, among others.
