By President Yoweri Museveni has dropped a bombshell — corruption has crept right into State House itself!
In a stunning revelation, the President disclosed that some people have been paying bribes of up to Shs 30 million just to have their letters or concerns placed before him.
“Can you imagine?” Museveni said. “People were paying Shs 30 million simply so I could see their letters. When I responded and solved the problem, the one who delivered the letter would pocket the money.”
Museveni confirmed that several culprits have been arrested, describing parts of the institution as “clogged with parasites.” He assured the public that he has multiple sources of information and will always get to the truth:
“The NRM is a benevolent organisation, not vicious. Those who do wrong often end up questioning themselves and confessing.”
The President shared a troubling case from July: whistleblowers with vital information couldn’t trust any official channels — not the GISO, not the DISO. Out of desperation, they went looking for his daughter, Natasha Karugire, believing she might get through to him. They even approached her friend, Marcella Karekye, who works at State House but doesn’t have direct access to the President.
This revelation has left many Ugandans asking: If even State House is not safe from corruption, where can citizens turn for help?
