Deputy IGG Rallies Kumam Cultural Leaders To Join War Against Corruption
Feb. 13, 2024
The Deputy Inspector General of Government (DIGG), Mrs. Anne Twinomugisha Muhairwe, has enlisted the support of the Kumam cultural leaders in the fight against corruption.
The DIGG made the appeal on February 13, 2024 during the orientation of the cabinet ministers of the Kumam heritage at Kalaki District Local Government Headquarters.
She noted that corruption was rampant partly because some people have no moral values which were probably not taught to them while growing up. This void, she said, leaves one with no integrity to desist corruption.
“As the Inspectorate of Government, we would like you to be our partners given the influence that you have as cultural leaders. Corruption is now the biggest hindrance to our country’s development. However, corruption happens as a result of the breakdown of moral values which we think you can help us restore among our people,” she said.
She also asked the leaders to engage their people on how to identify and expose corruption.
During the same event, she made a presentation titled ‘Citizen Responsibility in the Fight against Corruption’, where she reminded the Kumam leaders that they too had a role to play in the fight against corruption.
