This report is Confirmed true
and is of
Low Priority.
Here is why -
We confirm the resignation of Anthony Lino Makana after lawmakers from the parliament threatened to impeach him for blocking efforts to fight corruption and mismanagement. He was accused of approving a loan of $400 million (361 million euros) from Afrexim Bank without bringing it first to the house as recommended by law, in a motion tabled by lawmakers who demanded his resignation.
