Kipulu is being investigated by the General Inspectorate of Finance (IGF) for alleged embezzlement of public funds.

According to a document signed by IGF Director General Jules Alingete, Kipulu is being investigated and required to give “justification of the amounts released by the Public Treasury for the construction of vocational training centers, particularly in the provinces of Kasai, Kasai Central, Kasai Oriental, Sankuru and Lomami, indicating that no achievement on the ground has been able to justify the level of financial execution of these different projects.”
