Uganda’s President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has issued a firm rebuttal to allegations raised by opposition Members of Parliament (MPs) regarding the use of classified funds, including claims of UGX 100 million allocations per MP. During a broadcast on UBC TV on 10th, Hon. Muwanga Kivumbi criticized Museveni and the National Resistance Movement (NRM) government for alleged corruption.

Museveni’s remarks were aimed at countering these accusations, which he said were supported by the Daily Monitor newspaper.

On April 7th, reports emerged of several NRM MPs gathering at the residence of Hon. Annette Anita Among, Speaker of Parliament, in Nakasero to collect what she described as a “token of appreciation” amounting to UGX 100 million. This sparked widespread criticism, with some opposition MPs urging their colleagues to return the money.

In his statement, Museveni highlighted the historical sacrifices made by FRONASA-NRA combatants and the Uganda People’s Defence Forces (UPDF), emphasizing their commitment to patriotism and national security despite years of low pay. He defended the use of classified funds, stating they are vital for acquiring specialized equipment and countering enemy schemes, which he credited for maintaining Uganda’s status as “an island of peace” in a volatile region.

The President also questioned the opposition’s silence on foreign funding allegedly influencing Ugandan politics. He referenced comments by U.S. Congressman Andy Barr, who revealed American financial support for LGBT initiatives in Uganda, including grants aimed at shifting public attitudes and empowering the LGBT community. Museveni argued that accepting foreign funds constitutes both corruption and betrayal of national sovereignty.

Museveni criticized the opposition for focusing on classified funds while neglecting the issue of foreign financial interference. He called on Ugandans to remain vigilant and assured that traitorous activities would eventually be exposed.
