BREAKING: President Museveni Makes changes in Cabinet - See Full List Here

President Yoweri Museveni has announced changes to his cabinet, including the replacement of the Minister for Karamoja Affairs, Mary Goretti Kitutu, amid ongoing corruption allegations. Kitutu, who is facing charges related to the alleged misappropriation of iron sheets intended for the Karachuna warriors in Karamoja, has been replaced by Peter Lokeris.

The reshuffle, characterized by relatively few changes, also saw the appointment of Kampala businessman and events promoter Balaam Barugahara Ateenyi as the new State Minister for Children and Youth Affairs.

The decision to remove Kitutu from her position comes amidst mounting scrutiny over allegations of corruption within her ministry. It is alleged that iron sheets designated for the Karachuna warriors were diverted for personal gain, prompting investigations and subsequent charges against Kitutu.

In response to the reshuffle, President Museveni emphasized the importance of maintaining integrity within government institutions and vowed to continue the fight against corruption.

The appointment of Balaam Barugahara Ateenyi, known for his involvement in various business ventures and events promotion in Kampala, to the position of State Minister for Children and Youth Affairs has raised eyebrows among some political observers. However, supporters argue that his experience in organizing youth-oriented events could bring a fresh perspective to the role.

The reshuffle comes at a critical time for Uganda, as the government seeks to address challenges related to youth empowerment and development in the country. President Museveni's decision to make changes within his cabinet reflects his commitment to addressing corruption and ensuring effective governance in Uganda's political landscape.
