The report contends that a similar loan for currency stabilization was rejected by Parliament, only to be reintroduced by Kasaija under the pretext of salvaging NMS.<\/p>\n
PAC also wants Muhakanizi relieved of his duties \u201cFor lying to Parliament and for superimposing his authority portrayed by insisting on the loan acquisition against strong advice by the Governor Bank of Uganda\u2026and superintending the gross diversion of public funds, Muhakanizi should be relieved of his duties,\u201d reads the report in part.<\/p>\n
However, a minority report authored by Hon. Solomon Silwany clears the officials of any wrongdoing.<\/p>\n
\u201c\u2026the Ministry of Finance, Planning and Economic Development provided the requisite documentation to support the major purpose for the PTA loan facility. Therefore, there was no false pretence or fraudulent action by the Minister,\u201d notes Silwany in his report.<\/p>\n
The Deputy Speaker of Parliament, Jacob Oulanyah, said a comprehensive debate on the two reports would be held next week after allowing Kasaija an opportunity to present his case.<\/p>\n
On his part, Kasaija said the matter touches on his integrity and that he would present his explanation and await the MPs\u2019 decision on the matter.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is a very fundamental and very serious report. It touches on my integrity; I have served this country diligently for 50 years. This is a matter which I want to be given thorough opportunity to explain,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
