Earlier this morning, we inspected Namisindwa Senior Secondary School, which has an enrolment of over 600 students. We were deeply concerned to discover that the school has no functional toilet facilities, despite receiving UGX 44 million in government funding every term.
In consultation with the Acting Minister of Education and Sports, Hon. JC Muyingo, and Hon. Simon Mulongo, we resolved to temporarily close the school until Monday to allow the administration to urgently address the sanitation and hygiene concerns, including emptying and restoring the existing toilet facilities to a safe and usable condition.
We also established that the school has been charging every student UGX 65,000, contrary to the President’s directive on government-funded education. The Headmaster and all other concerned officers have been directed to report to the relevant investigative authorities for appropriate case management and further investigations.
The Government of Uganda remains committed to protecting learners and ensuring that public funds are used for their intended purpose. Any individual found abusing public resources or disregarding government policy will be held accountable in accordance with the law.

Headline: All involved in the creation of ghost health workers in hospitals and ghost students in our local schools must face the law
Following President @KagutaMuseveni Mzee’s directive, Kisanja no more sleep. Expose the corrupt.
The corrupt in local government should seek Christ. It is not too late to ask for forgiveness. We must forge a new path of zero tolerance to corruption.
Last night at 3:00 a.m., accompanied by the Regional Internal Security Organization (RISO) Chief, the State House Anti-Corruption Unit, representatives of the Criminal Investigations Directorate (CID), the DISO Mbale, and other security officials, we carried out an unannounced inspection at Busiu Health Centre IV, the largest health facility in Mbale District.
Our inspection uncovered five ghost staff who have reportedly been on the Government of Uganda payroll since July 2025 despite not being at the facility. This raises a serious question: who has been benefiting from salaries meant for these health workers?
It is deeply disturbing that while the available medical team is overwhelmed by the huge number of patients, corrupt individuals continue to siphon resources intended to strengthen healthcare service delivery. This is unacceptable, and it must stop.
With inspections of only two health centres in Mbale District, we have already uncovered 10 ghost staff being paid by the Government of Uganda. Every shilling stolen from the public is a shilling taken away from essential services for our people.
We shall continue these unannounced inspections and ensure that everyone involved is held accountable. Corruption in our health sector and in our local schools, where ghost students are created to steal public resources, has no place in Uganda.

National Campaign: Expose the Corrupt in Local Government
Today, we spent the day in Bulambuli District inspecting government-funded projects. We are deeply disappointed by the performance of the district technical team. Our inspection uncovered serious mismanagement of the Road Fund.
The District Engineer has been arrested to aid investigations, and several other officials will follow as investigations continue. Every shilling of public money that was stolen must be recovered, and all those found culpable will be held accountable in accordance with the law.
I sincerely thank the area Members of Parliament and the entire district leadership for actively participating in this important accountability campaign.

Namere Minister of State for Local Government, the Hon. simon Mulongo Minister of State for Labour, and the Patriotic League of Uganda (PLU) General Secretary, Hon. @HonTwallafadil , MP for Tingey County, who joined us in the field during today’s inspection and contributed to our findings.
