“This is an insult to every Ugandan struggling to make ends meet,” a member told Examiner.
The association emphasized the detrimental impact of such actions on Ugandan society, particularly amidst struggles in essential sectors like education and healthcare. “While our communities strive for basic amenities, officials prioritize self-enrichment,” the statement added.
Demanding immediate action, the Rubanda Farmers Association outlined three critical steps for MP Prossy:
1. Return of Funds: The association urges MP Prossy to promptly return the entirety of the funds allocated under the guise of “Service Awards,” emphasizing that these funds rightfully belong to the Ugandan people.
2. Public Apology: MP Prossy is called upon to issue a sincere and public apology to the citizens of Uganda for breaching their trust and confidence. Acknowledgment of wrongdoing and genuine remorse are expected.
3. Resignation from Role as Commissioner: Given the severity of the allegations and the consequent erosion of public trust, MP Prossy is urged to step down from her position as Commissioner of Parliament. The association underscores the necessity of preventing individuals implicated in corruption from retaining positions of power.
“The failure to address these demands will further undermine MP Prossy’s credibility as our elected representative,” the statement warns. “We implore her to prioritize the interests of her constituents and demonstrate the integrity and accountability expected from our leaders.”
The Association pledges to remain vigilant in ensuring transparency and accountability in governance, reaffirming their commitment to the principles of democracy and good governance.
