Shocking!! Speaker Anita Among Swiftly Exits Kampala As Museveni Orders Probe Into Her UK Multi-Billion Property – Camps At Her Bukedea Mansion

In a shocking turn of events, Speaker of Parliament Anita Among has fled to her country home in Bukedea after reports emerged that President Museveni had ordered an investigation into her wealth hidden in the United Kingdom.

The sudden retreat came after Among’s handler, Joseph Sabbiti, invited parliamentary reporters to cover her being counted in the ongoing census exercise at her Kampala residence. However, he later recalled the message, stating that the Speaker had left Kampala at breakneck speed to attend to “urgent issues” in Bukedea.

Sources close to the matter revealed that Among had learned of an order to probe her hidden wealth by security forces and the Inspector General of Government, Beti Kamya.

President Museveni has expressed shock and concern over the revelation that Speaker Among owns luxury houses in the United Kingdom, questioning how a public official could afford such expensive assets when Uganda still needs those investments.

In a letter to Foreign Affairs Minister Jeje Odongo, the President questioned how a public official could afford such expensive assets— saying, “Why would a Ugandan leader build or buy houses in the UK or anywhere else abroad, when Uganda, the still under-developed country where she would have earned the money, still needs those investments?”

The speaker’s alleged UK properties, including a luxurious mansion in an upscale neighborhood, were confirmed by HE Kate Airey, the British High Commissioner to Uganda, in a brief to President Museveni.

“She (HE Kate Airey) also told me about sanctioning the Rt. Hon. Anita Among. I said: ‘Why?’ She said that Anita Among has got a house or houses in the UK and has got bank accounts from which she pays school fees for her children who are studying there,” the President said.

He added: “I told her that the issue of houses would be very interesting if, especially, Anita Among did not declare them in her Leadership Code documents. If she had declared them, then the next issue would be how she got the money to build them. If these two are answered correctly and showing no mistake, the remaining issue would be political, ideological judgment.”

“Why would a Ugandan leader build or buy houses in the UK or anywhere else abroad, when Uganda, the still under-developed country where she would have earned the money, still needs those investments? It would definitely be a moral and ideological mistake.”

President Museveni has since instructed the Inspector General of Government and the Minister of Integrity to investigate whether Speaker Among declared her UK properties in her Leadership Code documents, as required by law.

“I have instructed the Inspector General of Government and the Minister of Integrity to investigate this matter thoroughly and report back to me,” President Museveni said.

The investigation is ongoing, and many are eagerly awaiting the outcome to see if Speaker Among’s denial will be vindicated or if she will face consequences for allegedly hiding her wealth.
