Tim Luwanga!
Who do you think you are fooling with my friend? Ugandans are very smart. They know that you obtained NRM so called "facilitation" money ,(also known as Bribe money) as a condition that you would then vote in favor of Museveni's "Ekisanga" .
The issue is not whether you, and your colleagues in the so called Uganda Parliament money from Uganda Tax payers or NOT. The issue is that as a representative of the people of Uganda, you allowed yourself to be BRIBED..that is the issue pure and simply.
Leaders are called to exhibit a certain High level of Integrity .. you and your colleagues who accepted BRIBE money from the NRM, totally failed in this regard. If I were you I would resign now, for your own political future... otherwise your political future is finish!!!

ETHICS minister Tim Lwanga is ready to resign if the sh5m that was given to NRMO MPs for consultation on the White Paper is taxpayers'.
"There is a lot of farce over nothing. I got the sh5m and I know what I did with it. In fact, I need more money for mobilisation. I will resign and refund it if it is from the national coffers," he told the government weekly media briefing yesterday.

Lwanga was responding to a reporter who asked whether the sh5m did not affect his integrity.
"The so-called opposition hold meetings and give out money. Is it a crime for the NRMO promoters to be facilitated? The sh5m was facilitation for a particular assignment. My conscience is very clear. Nobody has given me money to go to Parliament to support any position," he said.
Lwanga said the government had strong political will to fight corruption since 1986.
He said the money was raised by NRMO and not taxpayers' money as reports have said.
"We are entering a new political dispensation. We shall declare to the Registrar of Companies," Lwanga said.
He said a new Inspector General of Government (IGG) would be named soon and would have two deputies.

He said the government's achievements against corruption included establishment of the Inter-Agency Forum comprising the IGG, the Director of Public prosecutions, the CID, the Auditor General, finance, justice, public service ministries, Public Service commission and the Uganda revenue Authority.
He said the IGG's office had been extended to the countryside and a commitment control system on recurrent expenditure had been established to ensure that government departments spent what they were allocated.
