The Commissioner of Parliament, Hon. Esther Afoyochan has committed to supporting the Inspectorate of Government (IG) to mobilize civil servants to join the fight against corruption and stop being used by supervisors and politicians to commit fraud. She informed the Inspector General of Government (IGG), Hon. Beti Kamya Turwomwe, that she had fallen victim to systemic corruption during her tenure in the local government. She vowed to advocate for local government staff to report all incidences of corruption, particularly where the ‘big fish’ use the ‘small fish’ to defraud government, and they end up being investigated and arrested.
The Commissioner made the pledge when she represented the Speaker of Parliament, Rt. Hon. Anita Annet Among, to receive the IG Bi-annual Report to Parliament for the period July to December 2024. This is in fulfilment of Article 231(1) of the Constitution of the Republic of Uganda. Commissioner Esther Afoyochan appreciated the IG for fulfilling the constitutional requirement timely. She added that this made it possible to have the report tabled before Parliament.
While presenting the report, the IGG, Hon. Beti Kamya Turwomwe, appreciated Parliament for the support to the IG. She called on Parliament to increase budgetary allocation to the institution in order to fulfil its mandate more effectively and efficiently. The IGG further highlighted the performance for the period as follows:
(i) 1,209 investigations concluded
(ii) UGX 8.04 billion ordered for recovery
(iii) UGX 4.13 billion recovered in cash and assets
