Uganda has along history of political corruption and unethical practises carried out by it’s politicians. From embezzlement of public funds to bribery, political violence, and manipulation of elections, the country’s political landscape has been married by various corrupt activities.

Embezzlement and misappropriation of public funds have become common practises among Ugandan politicians.

This widespread corruption has significantly hampered the country’s socio-economic growth and perpetuated poverty and it’s citizens.

Bribery has also been prevalent in Ugandan politics. Many politicians have been caught accepting bribes in exchange for favours or influence.

Political violence is another disturbing aspect of corrupt politics in Uganda.
