Kabale Muslim District Supreme Council, along with local leaders and aspiring politicians, united today to denounce the dangerous corruption killing the nation.

Their collective voice rang out during the Eid –el-Fitr celebrations held at Ndorwa primary playground in southern Division Kabale Municipality.

Speaking to journalists on the celebrations, Hajji Issa Tindyebwa, Chairperson of the Kabale Muslim District Supreme Council, and Sheik Kassim Kamugisha, former Kabale Municipality MP aspirant and current Nakawa Division Deputy RCC, emphasized the detrimental effects of corruption, particularly its roots at the district-level where job positions are often secured through bribery.

Kabale district woman MP, Hon Catherine Atwakiire Ndamira, called upon the public to combat corruption starting from the grassroots level, emphasizing the role of both citizens and the government in this fight.

In a show of solidarity, aspiring leaders Grace Ankunda Bekunda Bwesigye (woman MP Kabale) and Counsel Atweibembere Wilbrod Rwamunahe (LC5 Chairperson) joined the Kabale Muslim District Supreme Council’s call for the president’s visit to their headquarters in Kirigime ward, situated between the Catholic and Protestant headquarters of Rushorooza and Rugarama, respectively.
