From NBC Washington:
Members of the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority are attempting to fire their national president, Barbara McKinzie, after McKinzie allegedly used sorority money to commission a $900,000 “living legacy wax figure” of herself.
Sometimes, this stuff just writes itself.
Eight Alpha Kappa Alpha members filed a lawsuit in the D.C. Superior Court on June 20, reports Washington Business Journal. The members want to fire their national leaders and order McKinzie to return funds stemming from alleged misuse of a corporate credit card; a $375,000 lump sum payment; and a $4,000 monthly stipend McKinzie is to be paid for four years after she leaves office.
