By Website Writer; The State House Anti-Corruption Unit working together with Police, has today Thursday October 13, 2022, arrested 5 Bunyangabu district officials over corruption.

The Principal HRO, Ikiriza Lucy was arrested for fraudulently enrolling 3 teachers on the district payroll without verifying their appointments with the Education Service Comm.
