Kasese District was affected so bad by the recent floods that left thousands of people homeless, it destroyed property and others lost their lives.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank our people power friends for such a huge contribution towards this noble cause,’said Hon Winnie Kiiza.

The Kyadondo East MP has called upon the government to make an accountability for all the money and relief items which has been donated to the Covid-19 national taskforce.

During a press conference at People Power head office in Kamwokya yesterday, the ‘Kyarenga’ Hit maker mentioned that Covid-19 taskforce continues to demand from the public without publicly showing an accountability of how the contributions have been utilized.

As gov't demands 10k from struggling Ugandans ostensibly to fight #COVID, they're dishing out 40m to MPs who voted to amend age limit! As they blocked Ugandans from returning home, those close to power continued to come in. It becomes clearer why our struggle is MORAL & URGENT

They have surprisingly asked for shs10,000 from Ugandans who earn a salary, but they have not taken the responsibility to inform us how the items and money they have all along been receiving since the lockdown began, has been distributed. This report is actually needed because Ugandans who are currently under home confinement are not working and yet the task force wants to squeeze money from them,’said Bobi.
