On 11th
September 2025, the Inspectorate
of Government (IG) joined over 300 secondary school head teachers under
the Association of Secondary School
Head Teachers of Uganda (ASSHU) at Masaka Secondary School for a
national engagement aimed at strengthening integrity, accountability, and
effective school management.
Representing the IG, Mr. Kakooza Savio Ntensibe, Director Ombudsman Affairs, together
with Mr. Agaba Samuel, Regional
Inspectorate Officer, Masaka Regional Office, and other IG staff,
sensitized participants on the IG’s threefold mandate: fighting corruption, ensuring
adherence to the rule of law and principles of natural justice (Ombudsman Role),
and enforcing the Leadership Code of Conduct.
The IG team highlighted common challenges in the
education sector such as staff grievances, student welfare issues, financial
mismanagement, irregular procurement, and forgery of academic documents.
They urged head teachers to strengthen grievance
handling mechanisms, uphold ethical leadership and work closely with the IG in
addressing systemic irregularities.
The session concluded with a call to action for head
teachers to be champions of accountability and transparency, fostering safe and
effective learning environments in partnership with the IG.
