1 Mins read

Shocking details have emerged about the expenditure of of Ugandan envoys in Denmark after an invoice leaked online.

According to the invoice issued on June 25, 2020, one mattress was purchased at a whopping 28, 898 Danish Krone, approximately Shs17, 011, 105. It also reveals that a sofa set was purchased at shs14, 516, 989.

The revelations come a week after Ugandan envoys in Denmark were tapped plotting on how to steal tax payers money. Uganda’s Foreign Affairs ministry responded by recalling the envoys involved.

A quick search online shows that some of Denmark’s most expensive mattresses do not go beyond 2000 krone (shs842,634).

In a clip that leaked, the diplomats are heard discussing how they would raise funds, bribe auditors and at the end of the day walk away with a lion’s share of the funds.

In attendance were embassy officials, Ms Nimisha Madhavni, the Head of Mission, Elly Kamuhunge, the Deputy Head of Mission, Ms Alex Hope Mukubwa, Accounting officer, Mr. Gordon Katureebe, the First Secretary, Mr. Ricahrd Biribonwoha, the Third Secretary, Ms. Slyvia Nambooze Kayongo, the Administrative officer and Musisha Wilfred, the Immigration Attache.

However at a point in the Zoom meeting, one of the attendees disagrees on how the money would be shared because a driver would end up having more money than the middle level staff at the embassy. ” We share with these two people that whatever there is those other balances find a way to utilize the funds and do not discuss with the local staff and the Mugisha’s who are in Uganda,” the female voice added.
