The Registrar of Political Parties Mohammed Saneem has today revealed that the funds from the NFP Relief and Welfare Fund were also used for other party expenses apart from Cyclone Winston relief.

Saneem says from the $22,736.95, only $2,154.80 was listed for activities related to relief or rebuilding after TC Winston in 2017.

Saneem says the NFP used $20,582.15 for general party expenses such as buying office supplies and payment of individuals.

He adds that the NFP has not been referred to FICAC for helping the people as claimed by the NFP.
