Merlene Resigned
posted (February 21, 2012)
Merlene Bailey-Martinez has resigned as CEO of the Social Security Board.

After weeks of stony silence, the Social Security Board today issued a release saying that she resigned on Friday due to quote, "negative public criticism and its impact to her family and her Christian community."

Now how does this square with the account from the Chairman Lois young to the Amandala that she had been terminated? Well, we still can't get that one straight, but it seems she was given the option to resign or be terminated, and she took the former.

We note that the internal auditor Denis Mahler who answers to the Board of Directors has returned to work.
