Mpuga inists Kabakumba, Mary Karooro should resign

The Member of Parliament for Masaka municipality Mathias Mpuga has called for the resignation of the minister for presidency Kabakumba Matsiko and the minister for information national guidance Mary Okuruti over the scandals they are involved in at UBC.

Mpuga told journalist at parliament that Matsiko was the minister of  information and national guidance a time when many UBC properties like land  and equipments  got lost. He cited an example of OB van which cost tax payers    1.8 billion shillings which also disappeared  yet on the local market it could have cost t only 180 million shillings.

He said that having been the minister in charge then; she is the first suspect to explain how the recovered mast found its self in a private station owned by her. Mpuga also wondered why UBC up to date has no board as a body, saying currently it’s the MD of UBC who is the board himself.

He challenged president Museveni to sack the minters since he has all along been saying that he is an advocate against corruption.

Mpuga says that parliament should use this opportunity to punish these ministers if they fail to resign.

Police yesterday  found a tower mast and transmitter  belonging to a government owned media UBC  being used by private radio called king based in Masindi district  and the radio is believed to be owned by Kabakumba.
