John Tangit suspended

PPL board suspends Tangit

The suspension follows the release to the Board of PNG Power of an investigative report into serious allegations of gross misconduct during Tangit’s term in office between 2009 and 2015.

The allegations are related to the Angoram Electrification Project and other transactions within PNG Power.

Ogil described the allegations as “serious and the evidence compelling” and follow a “detailed investigatory and forensic report prepared and presented to the PPL Board by an independent and reputable professional service with significant expertise in these matters.”
