Faced with a raging moral crisis in Cabinet and a limping economy, Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni heads to Parliament today (Thursday) to lay out plans for economic recovery. This as the country awaits action on ministers and other leaders mentioned in the scandal of diversion of iron sheets meant for poor people in Karamoja sub-region.
The iron sheets saga has dominated headlines for weeks and captured the attention of the president, the Inspectorate of Government and Parliament. In a recent Cabinet meeting, a visibly angry Museveni talked of “thieves” and called abuse of relief items “unacceptable”.
