– There is a serious breach of trust when irregularities are committed in relation to the handling of finances, writes Frp’s head of administration and strategy Helge Fossum to news. In an extraordinary central board meeting on Tuesday, it was decided that the county leader of the Agder FRP, Christian Eikeland, will be deprived of the opportunity to be elected to political and organizational positions until 2023. It was Fædrelandsvennen who mentioned the matter first. Fossum informs news that it is an amount of less than NOK 50,000 and that Eikeland has repaid the money. Eikeland has previously confirmed that he has mixed up party money and private finances. Did not follow up on his responsibilities Deputy leader in Agder FRP Magnus Stø Kittelsen, also loses his posts until 31.12.23. The central board believes that Kittelsen has not followed through on his responsibility as deputy chairman in the matter. – Magnus Stø Kittelsen has not followed up his responsibility as one of those who certify bills, at the same time he has also not followed up all decisions on financial management as he should. Kittelsen does not owe the FRP money, writes Fossum in an SMS to news. Applied for leave When the matter about the use of money became known just over a week ago, Eikeland had applied for leave from his position as county leader in Agder FRP. Since 2018, he has led the Agder FRP, and as county leader he also sits on the FRP national board. In 2021, he was in 3rd place on the Frp’s storting list in Agder, and is today a member of the storting.
