PAC Visit To Lubowa Specialized Hospital Construction Site Flops Again Due To Lack Of Safety Gear For The Legislators.
In February 2024, the speaker of Parliament Rt. Hon Anita Annet Among has ordered the minister of Health to investigate the circumstances under which the Leader of the Opposition and his team were blocked from accessing the construction site intended for the International Specialized Hospital in Lubowa.
Article 164 of the Constitution of the Republic of Uganda, 1995 is instructive in as far as accountability for public resources is concerned and accountability is an integral aspect of democratic governance for which Article 79 of the Constitution mandates Parliament to promote. The speaker quoted.
The speaker told the members of parliament that the House requires a progress report on the International Specialized Hospital Lubowa before embarking on the appropriation process. This followed the incident where the Leader of Opposition Joel Ssenyonyi Led a delegation to the Lubowa construction site only to be blocked by security and denied access to the site.
