The Auditor General, Junias Kandjeke, has identified several concerns related to the financial records of the Kavango East Regional Council for the fiscal year ending in March 2019.
In granting the regional council an adverse audit opinion, Kandjeke found that the financial reporting framework employed by the Kavango East Regional Council is not suitable for a public interest entity.
It’s worth noting that the 2018/2019 financial statement is the latest available from the council, as financial statements for the fiscal years ending on March 31, 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023 have not been submitted as of the finalisation of this audit report.
The auditor-general reported that the council made adjustments to its retained earnings balance totaling N$21 million through journal entries.
