Marlon Agaba, Executive Director @Acc_Ug: Each one of us has a role in the fight against corruption. Everyone should do one thing or two to fight corruption; all together, this effort will go a long way in the fight against corruption.

Marlon Agaba, Executive Director @Acc_Ug: There should be proper witness protection, improvement in communication, and feedback for citizens to see that work is being done to fight corruption.
#UnitingAgainstCorruption #NBSUpdates
Marlon Agaba, Executive Director @Acc_Ug: Whistleblowers whether known or unknown should be protected.

.@AnneTwino: Our mandate is diverse, we also have special powers where we can investigate or order police or any institution to investigate a matter.
#UnitingAgainstCorruption #NBSUpdates
.@AnneTwino: You find that most corruption cases have a link with the private sector. There is an annex between the private and public sectors.
#UnitingAgainstCorruption #NBSUpdates
.@AnneTwino: It is against this background that thorough investigations are made before decisions are made.
We are very careful in our investigations which is why sometimes we are not as fast-paced as the public would want us to be.
#UnitingAgainstCorruption #NBSUpdates
.@AnneTwino: The public has accused us of being slow. However, it is said that you would rather set free 100 guilty men than have one innocent man convicted.
#UnitingAgainstCorruption #NBSUpdates
.@AnneTwino: What happens today is that even people who are involved in corrupt tendencies, when they realize that they are going to be found out, they become whistleblowers.
They whistleblow on others to divert the attention away from themselves.

.@asuman_kiyingi:A good tribunal should be independent to prevent it from being influenced.
#UnitingAgainstCorruption #NBSUpdates
.@asuman_kiyingi: We also believe that as a tribunal we should enjoy independence but we do not have it yet. There is however a lot of goodwill from Parliament, Judiciary, and other anti-corruption agencies to realize this.

.@asuman_kiyingi, LCT Deputy Chairperson, Leadership Court Tribunal: Without information, the public is handicapped. You have to provide information before you fight corruption.
#UnitingAgainstCorruption #NBSUpdates
.@AnneTwino: Sometimes people give us information that prevents money from being taken or lost yet the law provides only for the 5% reward of the money that has been recovered.
#UnitingAgainstCorruption #NBSUpdates
.@AnneTwino: There is a need for the amendment of the Whistleblowers Protection Act.
#UnitingAgainstCorruption #NBSUpdates
.@AnneTwino: Some of the whistleblowers blow the whistle themselves.
It is incumbent on us to educate the public on who whistleblowers are and who they are supposed to whistleblow to. Whistleblowing is supposed to be confidential.
#UnitingAgainstCorruption #NBSUpdates
Marlon Agaba: We also do not have a comprehensive Witness Protection framework. We have had incidences where people have been shot after testifying in court, and others whose houses have been burnt because they were witnesses in court, among others.
#UnitingAgainstCorruption
Marlon Agaba, Executive Director @Acc_Ug: The Whistleblowers Protection Act is one of the poorly implemented laws. We have received so many complaints including people who report to government agencies.
#UnitingAgainstCorruption #NBSUpdates
Marlon Agaba, Executive Director @Acc_Ug: When it comes to fighting corruption that is a different question altogether. There are several challenges.
#UnitingAgainstCorruption #NBSUpdates
Marlon Agaba, Executive Director @Acc_Ug: There is some level of awareness and civic consciousness when it comes to corruption and where to report it.
