The recent exposure of Joel Ssenyonyi by Dean Lubowa Saava regarding the misuse of 1.7 billion shillings has gripped the nation with outrage and demands for accountability.
According to the allegations, the funds were directly diverted into the personal accounts of officials involved in the scam. Luxurious purchases were made with the stolen money, including:
100 million shillings was given to a certain Member of Parliament to silence him after he caught him in the middle of the deal.
A plot in Ntinda, which Ssenyonyi allegedly bought for 250 million shillings.
Another plot in Kyaanja for 450 million shillings, where he built an apartment.
Overseas trips, such as taking his wife to Dubai for her birthday celebrations.
The total amount used for these purchases rounds off to 800 million shillings, all spent in a short period. Combined with the 1.7 billion shillings of taxpayers’ money, was given to him for an undisclosed purpose and luxurious spending.
Citizens are demanding that those responsible be held accountable and that measures be put in place to prevent such corruption in the future.
The public outcry emphasises that accountability must be provided; otherwise, officials cannot fool Ugandans who struggle day by day to survive.
In five years of the National Unity Platform (NUP) administration, Uganda is reportedly collapsing under the weight of such corruption, with taxpayer money being used for personal gains instead of public benefit.
Consider what may have happened if they had spent this money properly.
The nation watches closely, hoping for justice and a clear demonstration that corruption will not be tolerated in Uganda.
