Ugandan Virtual Group Uncovers Graft in Government
In Uganda, an online protest movement is bringing to light allegations of deeply rooted corruption within the government. Issues such as the misappropriation of public funds, inadequately resourced hospitals, and neglected infrastructure are being highlighted through an online campaign on the social media platform X, previously known as Twitter. The hashtag #UgandaParliamentExhibition has gained traction by leaking official documents and presenting information through scheduled posts. This, in a country where street protests are practically outlawed — and where corruption is widespread and often deadly.To find out more about the impact of the campaign, Voice of America’s Douglas Mpuga reached Cissy Kagaba, a lawyer, and the former Executive Director of the Anti- Corruption Coalition Uganda (ACCU)
