Director of Endowment Office in Ibb resigns [Archives:2006/946/Local News]

IBB, May 9 ) Mr. Fuad Yahia Mansour, deputy of Ibb Governorate and director of Endowment office resigned on May 6 this year.

Reliable recourses said that Mansour's resignation came following his failed attempts to fight corruption in the governorate and carry out reforms. His efforts were curbed by some influential forces whose interests were threatened by his reforming approach.

Yahia Mansour was appointed as director for the endowment office only six months ago. The office remained for a long time without a director following the suspension of the former in-charge by the attorney general. He was accused of embezzling one and a half billion Yemeni rials from the endowment funds, during his four-year term at the office.
