President Yoweri Museveni has ordered three top Internal Affairs, police officials on a forced six month leave over UGX 31 Billion CCTV bribery scandal.
The officials who have been ordered to stay away from office, as the investigation commence include the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Internal Affairs, Lt. Gen. Joseph Musanyufu, Mr Aggrey Wunyi (Under-Secretary, Uganda Police Force), and Assistant Inspector General of Police (AIGP) Felix Baryamwitsakyi.
According to a May 23rd letter addressed to Head of Public Service and Secretary to Cabinet Lucy Nakyobe Mbonye, Museveni reveals that he had received a report from Maj Gen Kahinda Otafiire regarding the corruption in the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Uganda Police in the matter of maintenance of the Police cameras.
“I now direct that the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Internal Affairs- Lt. Gen. Joseph Musanyufu and the Under-Secretary Police, Mr. Aggrey Wunyi, go on forced leave for six months as the Anti-corruption Unit is investigating their matter to its conclusion,” Museveni wrote.
The probe comes days after Museveni dropped Gen David Muhoozi from the ministry and replaced him with Dr Lawrence Muganga, deepening scrutiny around a ministry, in the recent cabinet reshuffle.
