Newly elected representative Daniel Briceño has raised concerns regarding potential financial mismanagement within Colombia’s Ministry of Equality. Briceño publicized a list detailing 62 contractual processes totaling 469.548 billion pesos (approximately $117 million USD) initiated before the ministry’s recent dismantling ordered by the current government. He alleges the possibility of significant public funds being misspent due to the rushed nature of these contracts. Briceño warned of potential irregularities and urged close examination of the deals. The contracts were reportedly approved shortly before the ministry was slated for liquidation. Critics suggest the timing raises questions about transparency and responsible use of taxpayer money. The government has not yet responded to the allegations.
