ISO And IGG Start Fresh Investigations on Former Top Bank Of Uganda Officials; Kasekende, Bagyenda And Others.

Internal Security Organisation and Inspectorate of Government have commenced fresh investigation on top Bank of Uganda officials.

According to sources, former Deputy Governor, Louis Kasekende, former Executive Director Supervision, Justine Bagyenda, Director Legal, Margaret Kasule and Benedict Ssekabira, the director of Financial Markets Development Coordination (FMDC) are the top officials lined up for probing.

According to sources, ISO has been drawn in because previous investigations by the office of IGG have never been made public and as such, there is a likelihood that they are compromised.

“The appointment authority is unhappy with IGG delay on findings of the investigation on the top leaders at BoU. And therefore, he has instructed ISO to join the fresh investigation so as to have a genuine report” said a source.

State House Anti-Corruption Unit headed by Lt. Col. Edith Nakalema is also investigating top officials in relation to the payments they recently paid to city lawyers Timothy Kanyerezi Masembe and David Mpanga of Bowmans.

According to sources, the appointing authority is reportedly unhappy with the revelation that Bank of Uganda made losses to a tune of Shs2 trillion and yet top officials at the bank are swimming in wealth.

It was previously reaveled that, Two directors at Bank of Uganda were under investigations by State House Anti-Corruption Unit for allegedly paying Shs6 billion to two city lawyers.

The two directors are Benedict Ssekabira, of Financial Markets Development Coordination (FMDC) and Margaret Kasule, director legal services.

According to sources, the two directors are alleged to have sanctioned the payment of Shs6 billion to Masembe Kanyerezi and Mpanga. Sources further allege that although this money was released as legal fees, however, its intended purposes is to cover all the legal loopholes in the case of Crane Bank Limited takeover and subsequent during receivership.

The two lawyers represented BoU and the payment for their services has been ongoing until parliament probing committee, Committee on Commissions, State Authorities and State Enterprises (COSASE) that investigated BoU over the controversial sale of seven commercial banks between 1993 and October 20, 2016.

In December 2017, the Commercial Court disqualified city lawyers Mr Kanyererezi Masembe and Mr. David Mpanga from the Sh397 billion Sudhir Ruparelia’s case against Bank of Uganda (BoU), also citing conflict of interest.

In his ruling delivered on December 21, 2017, the head of the commercial court division, Justice Wangutusi stated that Mr. David Mpanga of A.F. Mpanga Advocates and Timothy Masembe of MMAKS Advocates acted in violation of the Advocates (Professional Conduct) regulations.

Last month, it was alleged that BoU released Shs4 billion as part of the balance on Shs20 billion to the same lawyers. However, what is intriguing investigators is why paying that entire amount to the lawyers and yet some of the cases are jointly handled by BoU own lawyers.

Sources say that the payment could be part of the ploy to falsify accountability in the case of Shs478 billion.

Also what is of interests to investigators are revelation that these have ill accumulated wealth which cannot resonate with their salaries.

UGANDA ELECTORAL COMMISSION TO ELIMINATE NATIONAL IDENTIFICATION CARDS (IDs) FOR 2021 GENERAL ELECTIONS.

The elimination of using National IDs (Ndagamuntu) for the 2021 elections should not have come as a surprise. One would be very NAIVE to think that Bobi Wine has not prepared for this in his Business Plan under the RISK section. It is public knowledge that our EC is not independent. It is also public knowledge that Military Dictator Yoweri Museveni will never lose an election. What stunned us this morning is when we noticed that on social media, people were mocking Bobi with his "get your Ndagamuntu". We are on record for saying to all Our readers that the National ID is like Apartheid in South Africa. Students of History would know how those IDs were being used to arrest people, deny them jobs, deny them basic services. Consequently, Bobi was not wrong and will never be wrong on the Ndagamuntu. Except the ones attacking him and mocking him forget that in Uganda, now, no National ID (Ndagamuntu), no service. If you have not been denied registering your child i...

Last week of March, a friend told me to pray for Uganda. I told him that he was an Idiot and we have prayed for too long and we are still hungry and sick and Jesus is not coming soon to liberate us. He then ignored the STUPID and sent me a picture we all now know. It got me totally messed up. This guy was telling me to pray then sends a picture of men bowing down in blood. He might have meant guns but I blocked him because his utterances of praying for Uganda were misplaced. I unblocked him 3 weeks later and asked him about praying and assassinations. His reply "eithrr prayers or guns or both". I hate violence with a passion. So he is now blocked in like FOREVER. Do you feel safe? Do not feel safe. Uganda regim...

Okello lost his wife 20 years ago and decided to only focus on their Mateo, Yona and Yosefu. 20 years later, Okello had 7 acres of land, a successful poultry business, and sinotrucks for hire.
