POMU concerned over unused HIV funds

Positive men union in Uganda are strongly concerned with the increasing idle funds laying on various accounts of many local government across the country and not fully extending services to the communities.

According to the national coordinator Richard, Gavi and Global Fund monies are sent to each and every district to service activities of people living with HIV/AIDS and its sad to note that the funds are not put to use and then at the end of every financial year they are sent back to the consolidated fund leaving the communities suffering at the
expense of a few negligent civil servants.

However officials from the Finance Ministry are attributing the factors to lack of convincing plans to which these monies are to be used for coupled with fear to misuse them thus the reason for sending them back to the consolidated fund.
