This is the second anti-corruption unit created by President Museveni and headed by Nakalema in less than five years.
The initial creation was meant to handle corrupt culprits that had eluded the Inspectorate General of Government (IGG) but it did not leave to its billing after it was also accused of hunting for petty thieves while leaving the filthy corrupt officials walking day and night.
Recently, President Museveni indicated that corruption was limiting Uganda’s chances of growing its economy, adding that he was going to get tough on the corrupt government officials and civil servants who are taking bribes and frustrating investors.
The president said he would form another unit for the job soon.
