Mitooma district
council has set up a three-man committee to investigate the corruption
allegations against Arthur Nzeyimana, the Town Clerk of Kanshenshero town
council.
The committee is chaired by Isreal Akankwasa, the Internal Auditor
Mitooma district, Edmond Mugumye Kazooba, Secretary and Lodovico Tumushabe as
member.
Sylvester Tumukurate, the Acting Mitooma District LC V
Chairperson, says the committee will investigate among other issues the alleged
removal of the town engineer as a signatory on the road funds account, the
double receipt of funds disbursed, failure to pay Ex-gratia to local council
one chairpersons and provide accountability for the 2017/18 financial year.

Tumukurate says the committee will take fourteen days to give
report back.
Nzeyimana was interdicted in December last year after he was
accused of mismanaging Shillings 38M from the road fund.
The money was
meant to pay the road gangs for the maintenance of Kahinda, Rukaranga and
Baryamujura roads. Nzeyimana blames his interdiction and accusations on some civil
servants he never mentioned who alleged skipped work for over fifteen days
without authorisation.
//Cue in: “Nkagiraho conflict nabakozi…
Cue out: … CAO Bamutomeza ekintu.”//
Nzeyimana says he has already reported to the CAO’s office to
clarify on some of the allegations leveled against him.
//Cue in: “Kwonka all in all…
Cue Out: …it on file.”//
The Chief Administration Officer declined to speak on the
matter when approached by our reporter. This isn’t first time an official in Mitooma
district is being interdicted for alleged corruption.
Last year, three Mitooma District officials including the
principal personnel in charge of the district Service commission, Amon
Byamugisha, Saverino Beyendeza, the District Community Development Officer,
Sarah Kiconco, the Katenga Sub County Community Development Officer were
arrested by the police and Inspectorate of Government respectively for
corruption.
