Oceania graft probe
Print Edition
The Oceania Football Confederation said yesterday it will investigate “potential wrongdoings” after a FIFA audit into construction of its lavish new Auckland headquarters raised corruption concerns. The move comes after the sudden resignation of OFC president David Chung two days before a meeting to discuss the FIFA findings. Chung quit on Friday citing “personal reasons,” but FIFA subsequently revealed its audit had uncovered “potential irregularities” in the Auckland project. FIFA said it had temporarily suspended OFC funding, part of a zero-tolerance approach to corruption introduced in response to numerous scandals that have tarnished its reputation in recent years. The OFC said it agreed to meet all FIFA requirements to resume funding, conduct a forensic audit of the case and carry out its own investigation.
