WestNile Region Leaders Castigate IGG, State House Anticorruption Unit Over Immunity in Handling Corruption Cases in Uganda.

In a Wednesday 30-11-2022 meeting held at Whitecastle hotel Arua, Politicians and Civil society organizations have expressed their dissatisfaction with how those Government entities entrusted to fight corruption are not doing what is much required of them.

Mr Peter Dibele who served as RDC for ten years before he was officially retired in this year’s March-2022 RDC reshuffle, asked IGG and other sister agencies to cross check various ministries that swindle millions of tax payers money but because some of the officials who steal such monies are “Big Fish”, they exclude them in their investigations and the small fishes (Local Government Officials) end up being harassed or arrested over such syndicates.

Mr Dibele lamented that, most of these RDCs don’t know or even touch some of those monies they are being raised to investigate and some end up with burnt fingers in execution of the task.

WestNile region’s police PRO SP Josephine Angucia who represented the Police in the region and was also the third last person to speak at the meeting chipped in some of the challenges they observed in the fight against corruption.

SP Angucia affirmed that, many times those other sister security agencies also tasked with fighting corruption come into a case before their police desks, it becomes hard for them as police to make follows ups of such cases because the files and suspects get taken away from themselves.

She said, it’s even sometimes the suspects whisked away in such cases who will come back to brief the police about the proceedings of the case before IGG or State House Anticorruption Unit in Kampala .

Mrs Angucia has urged those sister state security agencies (IGG, State House etc) to trust them (police) in handling such cases.

The police spokesperson also appealed to the government to allow trial and prosecution of suspects accused in corruption scandals to be handled in regional / near by courts of judicature.

Story to be continued…

Stay tuned.

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...
