Wau state headquarters commissioner arrested over corruption
The Information Minister of Wau State on Tuesday said the commissioner
for the state headquarters James Joseph was arrested by security
officials over corruption.
Minister David John Pons told Radio Tamazuj that Joseph who is also a
former agriculture minister was under custody on the charge of
corruption case after two tractors disappeared in the state.
He said that the commissioner was arrested over graft after local
leaders of Udici County reported that two of their tractors went
missing when Joseph was the state agriculture minister.
John, who is also the state government spokesman, said the state
headquarters commissioner’s arrest was made possible after government
lifted his immunity.
He said James was under investigation pending trial.
