The Minister of State for Mineral Development and MP Chekwii County responded to IG summons last week and answered questions on allegations of influence peddling and misuse of office regarding a government project undertaken in 2013, Moroto-Nakapiripirit road.

Events of 5 years ago surfaced this year after a whistleblower approached the IGG with a request to investigate sh9b which was withdrawn from an account held by the Registrar of the High Court.

While there are on-going court cases with regard to the ownership of Kamusalaba rock, the IGG is following sh9b paid to Welt Machinen Engineering Ltd, a company owned by sons of Minister Lokeris.
