President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni who also doubles as Commander in chief (CIC) of armed forces has strongly warned the Chief of Defence Forces (CDF) Gen Wilson mbasu Mbadi to deal with Corruption which is slowly eating UPDF family, Spyreports has exclusively learnt.
We woke reasonably late following the feast and free flowing wine the night before. After gathering ourselves and our packs, we headed down to our homestay family’s small dining room for breakfast, where we enjoyed scrambled eggs, toast, mekitsi (fried dough), local jam and peppermint tea.
We were making our way to the Rila Mountains, where we were visiting the Rila Monastery.
We wandered the site with busloads of other tourists, yet strangely the place did not seem crowded. I’m not sure if it was the sheer size of the place, or whether the masses congregated in one area and didn’t venture far from the main church, but I didn’t feel overwhelmed by tourists in the monastery.
The tough President Museveni issued last warning to CDF while presiding over UPDF thanks giving at Kololo independence ground.
“There is corruption in UPDF, stealing fuel is high, stealing money is beyond even UPDF officers are currently involved in land eviction,” Says tough and hard president Museveni. He added that corruption is eating UPDF and the commanders are just seating. “You Commanders who are many here, you have got the massage,” Says the President.
He added that they are some individuals who are killing the face of UPDF so deal with them before they number increases. “These are ebitokozo. When a leaf falls in a cup of milk, you remove it and take the tea. But when a fly falls in the cup of tea you pour it down,” Sounds President Museveni urging the CDF and his commanders to remove leafs in milk before flys falls in milk.
“UPDF needs self motivated people to do the work but not corrupt ones,” He said. He says he once sent Maj.Gen Kyaka Mugume on a mission in Kabamba and he successfully did it. “No body was seeing him or following him but he never brought lies to me. So these are the people we want in UPDF,” Reveals President Museveni.
He adds that if CDF and his commanders fail to remove corruption in the army he will do it himself
