FINDA BUNDOO SUMMONED OVER ALLEGED CORRUPTION AND ASSET MISUSE

MONROVIA, LIBERIA – The Assets Recovery and Property Retrieval Task Force (AREPT) has summoned former Chief of Protocol to ex-President George Weah, Madam Nora Finda Bundoo, for questioning over allegations of corruption, conflict of interest, and money laundering.

In an official communication dated April 14, 2025, the Task Force informed Madam Bundoo that she is a subject of an ongoing investigation linked to the Anita Group of Companies and its subsidiary, Gracious Ride. The letter, signed by John Gbilee, Head of Investigation and Intelligence, and approved by Chairman Cllr. Edwin Kla Martin, cited allegations involving theft of property, misapplication of public funds, economic sabotage, and money laundering.

According to the Task Force, Bundoo allegedly affixed her name, signature, and official identity to corporate documents of the implicated companies while still serving at the Executive Mansion. Investigators claim the companies acquired suspicious assets, including Suzuki vehicles, through questionable means and operated a transport service under the name “Gracious Ride.”

The letter referenced Executive Order #145, which renews Executive Order #126, mandating the government to trace and recover assets suspected to have been acquired illegally by current and former public officials. As part of this effort, Bundoo has been requested to appear before investigators on Thursday, April 17, at 2:30 PM, at the AREPT headquarters in King Gray. She is instructed to attend the meeting with legal representation.

The Task Force emphasized that this investigation is part of a broader national effort to promote transparency, accountability, and integrity within public service.
