President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has ordered that all parliamentary committee chairpersons who subscribe to the National Resistance Movement (NRM) be set aside, and new ones appointed.

The call follows a Central Executive Committee meeting chaired by President Museveni at State House Entebbe ahead of a decision by the house to designate committee chairpersons.

President Museveni during the meeting.

“CEC resolved to mandate the Government Chief Whip to present the approved Nominees for designation to the respective Parliamentary committees, defer the designation for the vacant leadership positions of the sessional committees for two weeks,” a CEC resolution read.

The affected committees include Agriculture, Animal Industry and Fisheries, Defence and Internal Affairs, East African Community Affairs, Education and Sports, Environment and Natural Resources, Finance, Planning and Economic Development, Foreign Affairs and Gender, Labour and Social Development.

Committee on Health, Information, Communication Technology and National Guidance, Legal and Parliamentary Affairs, Presidential Affairs, Public Service and Local Government, Tourism, Trade and Industry and the Committee on Physical Infrastructure.

The new decision by NRM’s CEC follows corruption allegations at Parliament. Some members of parliament have already been remanded on corruption charges with a couple others expected to report to CID for questioning.

Last week, MPs Yusuf Mutembuli; Lwengo Woman MP, Cissy Namujju and Paul Akamba were sent on remand to Luzira prison for allegedly soliciting twenty percent share of the budget of Uganda Human Rights Commission (UHRC) in exchange for influencing its increase.

Also, CID summoned MPs Michael Mawanda and Ignatius Wamakuye Mudimi, over their alleged involvement in corruption and theft of funds meant for Cooperatives.
