Fin24 reports that trade union federation Fedusa announced on Thursday morning that it had placed its general secretary, Dennis George, on precautionary suspension, pending an external investigation.
George had been placed on special leave on 6 February. "This decision comes in the wake of allegations relating to the acquisition of shares in technology company, AYO Technology Systems," said the federation. Fedusa went on to indicate: “In remaining steadfast to the principles of accountability, and the continued promotion of good, clean, ethical governance, Fedusa initiated an independent, external investigation to determine the veracity of the allegations. The investigation remains ongoing. The recommendations arising out of the investigation by Fedusa will be communicated to all interested and affected parties.”
