Allegations of corruption - MPs Tinkasimire & Ssekikuubo ask that plenary resumes immediately

A section of members of Parliament has added their voice to call for the resumption of parliament from a sine-die recess. MPS including Bernerbas Tinkasimire of Buyaga west and Theodre Ssekikuubo of Lwemiyaga County claim that the image of Parliament is being tainted while on break. This follows ongoing allegations by the opposition wing that Parliament has been hit by corruption scandals involving top leadership and members of Parliament accordingly. This week, the Director Communications and public Affairs Chris Obore described the allegations as a smear campaign to tarnish the image of the Parliament. Obore reiterated that Parliament cannot be run on rumors.
