The staff member, who was speaking at a press conference, denied having used order money for her own profit and added that she will press two criminal charges against the northern regional council for "slander.
According to the official, who supported her statements by distributing documents to journalists, her board has already opened two criminal cases in the Criminal Investigation Service (SIC) and the Attorney General's Office (PGR) against the accusers.
"There have been no embezzlement and we have opened two criminal cases at the SIC and the PGR and I believe that all these issues of embezzlement and embezzlement will be resolved in justice because we when we slander have to have evidence," he said.
Elisa Gaspar, for more than a year in the position of staff of Ormed, is accused of "misappropriation of funds and harmful management" of the institution, including an alleged embezzlement of 19 million kwanzas, and "other unjustified spending.
She also said that the amount in question was used between March and December of last year to pay salaries of internal employees, travel and accommodation tickets, transportation, fuel, repairs, water, electricity, among others.
For the Ormed staff member, some of her former employees, already fired, "are leading" what she calls "a campaign of defamation and forgery of documents".
She recalled that the former director of her office was removed from the institution for forgery of documents, accuses her colleagues of "excessive ambition" and claims that the 19 million kwanzas were ceded to the Order by the Minister of Health.
"This is a little bit of unmeasured ambition of the colleagues because they thought that the Order had a lot of money and they wanted to take advantage of the funds when it has difficulties," he pointed out.
Elisa Gaspar also revealed that when she took office "there was nothing" at Ormed and that she found a debt of 21 million kwanzas, a situation that led her to request the support of the Minister of Health, Silvia Lutucuta.
"When I arrived here I had nothing and asked the minister for these amounts and almost 10 million kwanzas went to pay salaries, another six million went to buy all the computer equipment and what was left over we paid water, because I found a debt of 21 million kwanzas", she explained.
Ormed's management announced on Monday that the staff "will remain in office until the end of its mandate" and considered its announced dismissal as an "attempt to manipulate public opinion".
In a clarification note sent to Lusa, Ormed's institutional communication office says it learned of the alleged dismissal of its staff through the media.
In statements to the press on Thursday, Elisa Gaspar recalled that she was elected "democratically" and will "fulfill her three-year mandate.
"There are always elections and people have to prepare for the next elections, make their candidacies, their campaigns and win because it cannot be by force," she concluded.
