There are concerns from the public that some suspects may have been confident about their freedom even before their arrest, with claims that they would eventually secure bond and return home.
@BalaamBarugahar@kutegyekaivan1@MwijukaBoaz 2/ What worries many Ugandans is the perception that some individuals involved in corruption believe they are untouchable that connections and influence can protect them from facing the consequences of their actions.
Imagine paying for a job,only to discover it never existed.
The alleged Kayunga jobs-for-cash scandal shows how corruption destroys hope of ordinary citizens. Government recruitment must return to one principle: merit, not money.

I commend the people of Kayunga for courageously exposing corruption in the District Service Commission. It is estimated that fake jobs worth approximately UGX 840 million were sold through the Commission Secretary.
For the past two weeks, many members of the public have been calling and providing valuable information. I also extend my sincere appreciation to the State House Anti-Corruption Unit for taking swift action. Several individuals have already recorded statements as investigations continue.
We must work together to clean up our local government offices at every level. Public jobs are a trust, not a commodity for sale. Corruption has no place in public service, and anyone found responsible should be held accountable in accordance with the law.
