0

The deputy headteacher of Kasasira Seed Secondary School Kasasira town council Kibuku district Aziz Mukwaya is in hiding after swindling 29million shillings Universal Secondary Education-USE fund meant for paying students’ fees.

It is three months now since Mukwaya withdrew the 29 million from DFCU bank and up-to-date he has not given accountability.

Yesterday the Kibuku district Auditor, local leaders, and teachers of Kasasira seed secondary school organized a meeting to find out how the 29million was spent by the deputy headteacher who did not turn up for a meeting yet he was invited.

The angry parents and board members blame it on the acting chairman of board Kasasira Seed SS Bantulumayo Wagoole Bumba who doubles as the mayor of Kasasira town council for colliding with Mukwaya to swindle the 29milion.

When contacted, the chairman board refused to address the press.

Robert Mulekwa a parent says that even last month parents demonstrated over this same issue of 29million missing yet the government sent this fund to help the poor students.

Adds that the chairman board was entrusted by the parents so should come out and handle the situation at hand. 

‘’This issue started last month and we tried approaching the responsible persons because the government sent this, money to help the poor students and also pay teachers who are not on payroll’’‘’

We elected you with much trust but if you sit back and watch people swindle funds then we are to lose it in you’’Banyoko Sam the school board member says that the 29million sent on 17th January was withdrawn by Mukwaya from DFCU bank but no activity has been shown out of this money and yet he cannot be located.

‘’This money must have been swindled yet our students are always sent home for school fees and we don’t see any activity out of this money but as board members are getting way forward to ensure the money is back on the account’’

Badawi Mbulakyalo the Kibuku district councilor says that misusing government funds is bad because the government releases money on accountability so this should be accounted for too.

He says that as a leader they are to ensure parents get justice.‘’Parents I assure you that you will get justice on this matter, swindling government funds is bad so this money should be accounted for’’
