Corruption

Last week, ActionAid Uganda in partnership with the Uganda Police, launched the Corruption Free Police stations campaign. The campaign is aimed at recognizing honest officers but also rallying the public to report all officers who ask and accept bribes in return for services. In this Campaign, messages for awareness creation on forums for reporting corruption will be put up at over 10 police stations with in KMP.

Voters in Kihihi have decried the rampant harassment and intimidation at the hands of Crime Preventers within the district. This was during the Stop Over of the Anti Corruption Caravan that was held at the Moon Light Lodges yard in Kihihi Trading Center.

”Those Crime Preventers are scaring us that they will kill us because we are vocal against vote rigging and corruption. Now we don’t know what we should do,” lamented Turyahikayo Godfrey.
