Hoima Municipal Councillors on Thursday turned rowdy and
demanded for immediate transfer of the town Clerk David Kyasanku.
During a council session, the councillors accused the Town Clerk of abuse of
office, incompetence, failing to implement council resolutions, absenteeism and
having poor working relationship with the technical staff.
Godfrey Azoora, the Bujura ward councillor in Bujumbura division raised a
motion to have the town clerk transferred with immediate effect.
The councillors unanimously seconded the motion, causing commotion
in the council.
The councillors say the town clerk has failed to give accountability of 420
million shillings meant for the renovation of the Hoima Municipal
Administration block that started in 2017.
The town clerk bowing to the pressure from the councillors attempted to move
out of the council but was saved after the intervention of the Hoima Resident
district Commissioner-RDC Samuel Kisembo who pleaded with the councillors.

mismanaged the municipal funds. He says the councillors should produce evidence
of the allegations.
