Two head teachers arrested over roofing classrooms with Karamoja iron sheets

Police in Mityana District have arrested two head teachers for roofing their classrooms and other school buildings with iron sheets suspected to be meant for Karamoja Sub-region.
The materials were illegally shared among ministers.
Police sources told this publication yesterday that an unknown number of iron sheets were recovered from Kitovu Primary School and Bongole Primary School, both located in Malangala Sub-county.
The detained school bosses’ are Ms Christine Nabukera of Kitovu Primary School and her counterpart Enid Kunihira of Bongole Primary School.
The schools are located in Busujju Constituency, whose area Member of Parliament is Mr David Lukyamuzi Kalwanga.
Sounding rather upset, Mr Lukyamuzi told this publication that he had absolutely nothing to do with the suspect iron sheets.
“I am green about the Karamoja iron sheets. I don’t know how they got into my constituency! Someone is trying to frame me and dumped the iron sheets in my constituency because of too much pressure,” Mr Lukyamuzi said.
With the scandal surrounding the Karamoja iron sheets raging, and as the government starts dragging officials implicated in the scandal to court, individuals named in the investigation are reportedly in a panic.
