List of shame: Govt names more than 1,000 thieves of public funds

The Inspectorate of Government (IG) has published a list of individuals who owe government money in form of fines and refunds.

The list, now dubbed list of shame was advertised recently in local media with some individuals being asked to pay at least shs1b while the lowest owes government shs20m.

“The Inspectorate of Government (IG) wishes to remind the under listed persons who were ordered either by Court or IG to pay/refund sums of money,” the advert reads in part.

Top on the list is a Chinese company followed by former agriculture ministry permanent secretary Pius Wakabi Kassaja who owes shs850m to government.
