A section of community leaders in Soroti City, Eastern Uganda have threatened to walk to Kampala and also block National Unity Platform (NUP) president Robert Kyagulanyi, alias Bobi Wine from stepping in Teso sub region over UK sanctions against Speaker Anita Among.
On April 30, Britain announced its first-ever corruption-related sanctions against Uganda, targeting Ms Among, Ms Mary Goretti Kitutu, and Ms Agness Nandutu, both former ministers responsible for the restive mineral-rich Karamoja region. The sanctions consist of travel bans and asset freezes.
Ms Kitutu and Ms Nandutu allegedly stole a significant quantity of iron sheets from a government-funded housing initiative intended to aid vulnerable communities in Karamoja. Among was said to have benefitted from the stolen materials.
