The Director of Operation at the Inspectorate of Government, Mr. James Penywii Onying on Luo FM radio for a talkshow on 14th June 2022.
The Uganda Inspectorate of Government (IG) has 14th June 2022, said that the government has decided to award corruption whistleblowers 5% of the alleged embezzled money during a talk show on one of the radios in Pader district.
The Director of Operation at the Inspectorate of Government, Mr. James Penywii Onying, made the pronouncement on a radio that calls for community engagement to end corruption.
Onying alleged that all the district workers are corrupt because corruption carries different forms like bribery, and hidden embezzlement of public funds, among others.
"People are suffering, and there is poor service delivery hence making taxes not to do it is a designed task because of corruption. IG has come up with a new strategic location to handle the increasing corruption cases by disseminating information to the locals," Onying said.
He further urged locals to join hands and fight against corruption in the country alongside the Lifestyle audit launched in 2021 by His Excellency, Yoweri Kaguta Museveni to fight corruption in Uganda which began with 185 employees in the country, out of which 35 employees are IGG staff. The German Society for International Co-operation -GIZ, surveyed various government departments and discovered that Uganda loses money in almost each of the sectors of the economy amounting to 20 trillion every year.
