NOCMA Boss Buluma Fired

Acting Chief Executive Officer for the National Oil Company of Malawi (Nocma) Helen Buluma has resigned from her post with immediate effect.

In a letter we have seen, Buluma says she has arrived at the decision because of the pressure she has been receiving from the office of the Secretary to President and Cabinet on award of contracts to fuel suppliers.

Our sources from the Office of the President Cabinet however, have told Times 360 Malawi that a decision had been reached to fire Buluma.
