In an interview, Ms Mungai maintained that the Sacco was still closed but payments had been disbursed for savers with Sh50,000 and below with plans underway to refund monies to super-savers. She’s still awaiting a report from the liquidators, Assistant Director of Co-operative Audit Stephen Kamau and Principal Co-operative Officer Philip Ukhevi.
“I gave them an extra three months to complete work while the sacco’s management should complete the required changes,” she said.
