Iganga District Councilors Want RDC Transferred

District Council Speaker Bernard Mpungu says that since councilors unanimously voted against her unbecoming behavior, the appointing authority should take their concerns seriously so as to create harmony and sanity within the district

District councilors want Iganga Resident District Commissioner -RDC Eva Kwesiga transferred over poor working relationship with local authorities. 

Led by the district council speaker, Bernard Mpungu, the councilors say that Kwesiga has made it a habit of blackmailing politicians before the media even without having concrete proof to back her allegations.

They further accuse her of conniving with a clique of powerful politicians to frustrate the political careers of their counterparts opposed to her wishes.

Mpungu argues that Kwesiga is meant to advise councilors on the different ways of selflessly serving the electorates’ interests, other than capitalizng on their shortcomings to demean them before the public. 

He adds that since councilors unanimously voted against her unbecoming behavior, the appointing authority should take their concerns seriously so as to create harmony and sanity within the district.
