Irreversible damage has been inflicted upon Fenaka Corporation due to procurement-related failures under its previous management, Mohamed Afeef Hussain, the company’s managing director, stated.
These institutional lapses created systemic operational difficulties, as former leadership teams failed to enforce adequate oversight when acquiring essential supplies for the corporation, Afeef detailed in an interview with PSM News. The utility firm currently faces escalating financial burdens and persistent mechanical failures, including the costly necessity of repeatedly repairing identical infrastructure, he noted.
The quality of materials acquired for operational needs was so severely compromised that the firm’s own engineers explicitly brought the deficiencies to the attention of upper management, Afeef stated. Instead of acting in a fiscally responsible manner, previous operations within Fenaka prioritised the personal interests of insiders alongside the agendas of certain external parties, he observed.
Addressing the internal malfeasance, Afeef remarked that instances occurred where documents were approved under the names of former employees to solicit funds. "Consequently, we will put a complete stop to these types of practices," he asserted.
As Fenaka functions as an essential utility provider, the delivery of substandard materials directly undermines the quality of services delivered to the public. "The code number of a single item might match," he explained. "The remaining items, however, are merely duplicates deceptively labelled to resemble the genuine articles."
Guided by directives from President Dr Mohamed Muizzu, the corporation is now systematically eliminating these vulnerabilities, establishing modernised protocols to secure essential spare parts.
