DEPUTY IGG JOINS STAKEHOLDERS TO REVIEW PERFORMANCE OF GOVERNANCE AND SECURITY PROGRAMME In a spirit of shared commitment to strengthening accountability across the public sector, the Deputy Inspector General of Government (DIGG), @DrOkiria, today joined key stakeholders to review the Governance and Security Programme (GSP) annual performance for FY 2025/2026 at Imperial Royale Hotel. Organised by the Office of the President (OP), the review was intended to evaluate the GSPโ€™s performance for FY 2025/2026, identify key challenges and propose appropriate mitigation measures including more strategic approaches to deepen implementation of the programme priorities in support of the Tenfold Growth Strategy, and highlight areas for enhanced resource mobilization. During the same activity, the GSP report for FY2025/2026 was launched, marking the first assessment of performance under the second GSP Strategic Plan, which is aligned with the implementation of the Fourth National Development Plan (NDP IV). @DrOkiria's attendance was particularly significant given that the @IGGUganda's mandate of promoting just utilization of public resources, contributes to Objective Five of NDP IV which is; to enhance good governance, security, and strengthen the role of the state in development. Her participation further reinforced the importance of institutional collaboration in advancing transparency and promoting quality and efficient service delivery to citizens. The GSP brings together over 30 Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) responsible for upholding the rule of law, ensuring security, maintaining law and order, public policy governance, access to justice, promoting human rights, accountability and transparency.

IGG CAUTIONS HOIMA DISTRICT AND CITY STAFF AGAINST CORRUPTION The Inspector General of Government (IGG), Lady Justice Naluzze Aisha Batala, has cautioned staff of @HoimaDistrictLG and Hoima City against corruption and abuse of public office. The IGG made the remarks during a joint boardroom session with the leadership and staff of the two entities at Hoima City Stadium as part of her regional tour. She underscored the importance of accountability and transparency in the management of public funds, including resources allocated under the Parish Development Model (PDM). She urged district and city authorities to ensure that all government projects are implemented in accordance with the required standards and that public resources deliver the intended benefits to citizens. Lady Justice Naluzze also warned against corruption in recruitment, particularly the sale of jobs, noting that the @IGGUganda would not hesitate to apprehend those found culpable. She emphasised that the @IGGUganda prioritises investigations to establish the facts and gather evidence before taking appropriate action against suspected offenders. The leadership and staff of @HoimaDistrictLG and Hoima City also had an opportunity to share their concerns and engage the IGG on issues relating to service delivery, accountability and the fight against corruption. #ExposeCorruption

Speaking during a high-level stakeholder meeting, EACC Commissioner,Mr John Ogallo said closing loopholes in port operations would not be sufficient without holding public officers accountable for their actions. He emphasised that safeguarding the port required robust oversight mechanisms, integrity and a culture in which misconduct is addressed decisively. Chief of Staff and Head of the Public Service, Mr Felix Koskei underscored the importance of strengthening controls as cargo volumes passing through the port continue to grow. He noted that efficient and transparent port operations were critical to protecting public revenue, facilitating legitimate trade and helping to ease the cost of living. UNODC Eastern Africa, Team Lead for the Anti-Corruption Hub Mr Francesco Chechi, highlighted the importance of coordinated action and international cooperation in tackling corruption and financial crime at strategic trade gateways. He noted that weaknesses in oversight and gaps in coordination can create opportunities for corrupt practices and allow criminal networks to exploit trade and financial systems. Strengthening collaboration among relevant institutions, he said, is essential to closing these gaps, improving the detection of illicit activities and safeguarding the integrity of port operations. Chechi also underscored the importance of complementing enforcement with preventive measures, including stronger institutional safeguards, information sharing and capacity building. These efforts can help institutions identify corruption risks early, curb illicit financial flows and protect legitimate businesses from unfair competition. As a vital gateway for Kenya and the wider East African region, the Port of Mombasa plays a central role in trade and economic growth. Strengthening accountability and transparency in its operations is essential to protecting public resources, supporting legitimate businesses and maintaining confidence in the country's trade systems.

The arrest follows a complaint received by the Commission alleging that the auditor had demanded money from the contractor to influence the outcome of an audit exercise. Acting on the report, EACC investigators mounted an operation in Eldoret and arrested the suspect after receiving Kshs. 400,000 from the complainant. The suspect was processed at the EACC North Rift Regional Office and subsequently released on a cash bail of KES100,000 pending the conclusion of investigations and further action. EACC remains commited to strengthening accountability, and integrity in public affairs management.

IG JOINS INVESTIGATIVE PARTNER AGENCIES TO LAUNCH FINANCIAL INVESTIGATIONS TRAINING MANUAL AND TOOLS In the spirit of fostering inter-agency cooperation and strengthening the collective fight against financial crime, @IGGUganda joined partner institutions in the official launch of the Financial Investigations Training Manual and Tools. Launched at the @PoliceUg Headquarters in Naguru, the manual represents a landmark achievement in the ongoing effort to strengthen investigative capacity and reinforce a coordinated, professional, and intelligence-led response to safeguarding the nationโ€™s economic security. The manual has been developed collaboratively by the @ThefiaU , @PoliceUg , @URAuganda , @IGGUganda ,@ODPPUGANDA & @ugwildlife . Serving as both a guide and a strategic resource, the manual provides clear methodologies, innovative investigative techniques, and structured procedures for uncovering and tracing illicit assets. By promoting evidence-based investigations and strengthening case-building capabilities, it enhances the pursuit of justice and increases successful prosecutions and asset recovery. It is designed to build capacity not only for new officers entering the field, but also for senior officers, equipping all stakeholders with the knowledge and skills needed to effectively tackle sophisticated financial crimes. As the financial landscape continues to evolve at an unprecedented pace, this manual stands as a timely and critical resource in the fight against financial crime. By reinforcing existing interventions and enhancing investigative capabilities, the manual provides a robust framework for addressing emerging risks. The collective commitment demonstrated in the development of this manual underscores a powerful truth that when institutions see beyond the boundaries of their individual mandates and work toward a shared vision, even the most complex challenges can be overcome. It is a testament to the fact that with mutual resolve, collaboration, and a common desire to build a secure and prosperous economy, meaningful and lasting solutions are within reach. @IGGUganda team was led by Mrs. Taliba Hilda, Director Legal Affairs, who represented Deputy IGG, @AnneTwino .
