{UAH} President Was Given Wrong Information on DGF Funding – Minister Kasaija

Finance Minister Matia Kasaija has written to president Yoweri Museveni clarifying that the information on which he based a decision for the suspension of the Democratic Governance Facility -DGF was wrong.

President Yoweri Museveni had earlier on ordered the suspension of the Democratic Governance Facility (DGF), the single biggest donor basket established by Development Partners to provide harmonized, coherent and well-coordinated support to state and non-state entities in the country.

According to President Museveni, the Ministry of Finance irregularly and unilaterally authorized DGF funding, to a tune 500 billion Shillings, to be operated exclusively by foreign missions in Uganda. He added that the approval of DGF operations, without government oversight, tantamount to surrendering the sovereignty of the people of Uganda to foreign interests.
