In Rukungiri—-

The Rukungiri district local government public accounts committee (PAC) has tasked the town clerk Kebisoni town council Charles Najunwah and treasure Kenneth Byaruhanga to account for Ugx 50 millions that was meant for the construction of an administration block.

The two were tasked after they failed to explain the expenditure of this money forcing the committee members to exchange hot words a thing that made the town clerk to vacate the meeting room.

Kebisoni town council was created in 2016/17 financial year and given 100 millions as startup capital of which Ugx 50 million was to construct an administration block.

Since its creation, the town council has been operating in a small sized administration block that was constructed by Kebisoni sub- County.

Wilson Kamukungu, the committee chairperson said that the administration block is not on ground yet it is documented adding that as the committee they very much want to see the building.

Kamukungu told www.mknewslink.com  that the town clerk presented documents explaining the existence of a ghost administration block to the office of chief administrative officer last financial year.

He added that this prompted the councilors representing the town council in the district council to call for assistance from this committee (PAC).

Leonard Tiberondwa, councilor representing Kebisoni town council in the district council told our www.mknewslink.com  that he was surprised after seeing the chief administrative officer informing the district council that Kebisoni town council had finished constructing an administration block yet it was not on ground.

However, the town clerk did not comment much on this issue but said that he was going to ask former town clerks since he was not yet posted there by that time.
