PSP clears accountant, DCEC pounces on him :: Mmegi Online

Following the recent revelation that Assistant Accountant General, Moses Moreri has been charged with corruption, it turns out that Permanent Secretary to the President (PSP) Emma Peloetletse and the Directorate on Corruption and Economic Crime (DCEC) cleared him of any wrongdoing a month earlier, Mmegi has established.

In a statement last week the DCEC revealed that Moreri had been charged with abuse of public office, contrary to section 24A (1) and conflict of interest contrary to section 31 (1) (b) of the Corruption and Economic Crime Act (Cap. 08:05). The matter involves a tender worth P12.5 million.

As the matter stands, a letter from the PSP in Mmegi possession shows that Moreri’s suspension was lifted before he was arraigned on charges of corruption before Regional Magistrate South, Mareledi Dipate. In a letter dated April 24, 2025, Peloetletse lifted Moreri’s suspension and declared that the latter is advised to resume duty as Assistant Accountant General - System Support with immediate effect.
