President Museveni has tasked several individuals, including former
Electoral Commission chairman Badru Kiggundu, to investigate a Shs76b
procurement scandal that has rattled the army and the Ministry of
Defence, Daily Monitor has established. Dr Kiggundu in particular, our
sources confirm, has since reported back to the President confirming
most of the rot that had earlier been written in several reports of
investigations into procurement problems and shoddy works on the
army's Kaweweta Recruit Training School.

They say during their incarceration, the remaining members of the
committee produced a separate report to the TMC (top management
committee of Defence) which has led to further payment of Shs1.6b to
Mr Mubiru.
The petitioners aver that the contract costs were overstated by up to
Shs37b and that the reasonable amount for the five separate contracts
should have been at most Shs 30b, not Shs76b as stated.
"This is evidenced by over-costing, with assistance of the Engineering
Brigade, false bidding and stage-managed procurements," the
petitioners say.
