Dear leaders and members of @TheUMAofficial . On our nationwide “Expose the Corrupt” inspection tour, it is one Government on the move. We are currently conducting “Expose the Corrupt” inspections together with the Minister of State for Health, officials from the Ministry of Works and Transport, the Office of the President, State House Legal, the State House Anti-Corruption Unit, the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), the Criminal Investigations Directorate (CID), local leaders, Area Members of Parliament, LC V Chairpersons, and other government agencies. Our common objective is to strengthen service delivery, promote accountability, eliminate corruption in public institutions, and ensure that public resources serve the people for whom they are intended.
Exposing patients should not happen again, and privacy must be fully respected and protected. Professional associations should continue to educate their members and reinforce the highest standards of professionalism and integrity.
To the Medical Professionals Association: please work closely with your members to ensure that medicines meant for the public are not misused or stolen, and that patients in government hospitals are not subjected to illegal charges. Where concerns arise, we encourage timely corrective action through established professional and legal processes to uphold accountability and restore trust.
When we issued a similar message to the Engineers’ Professional Association, the results were encouraging. So far, four district engineers have appeared before the Anti-Corruption Court, and many engineers in the districts we have inspected have significantly improved their performance and compliance.
Professional associations play a critical role in guiding, educating, and supporting their members to uphold ethical standards, transparency, and accountability in the discharge of their duties. Together, we can restore public confidence and ensure that government services are delivered with integrity.
The health of Ugandans is not negotiable. Public service must always be guided by honesty, accountability, and compassion.

NATIONAL CLEANING DAYS
“In countries where similar initiatives have succeeded, such exercises are carefully planned. They often start at 6AM to 7:30AM, not 10AM as the PM’s directive. The wisdom behind this is to minimise disruption to daily activities.” — @MathiasMpuuga
