The Rules Committee of parliament has summoned the Leader of Opposition Mathias Mpuuga together with the Bukoto South Member of Parliament Twaha Kagabo to explain the source of the 40 million Shillings that they have been throwing around.
The Speaker of Parliament Anita Among directed the committee to probe Kagabo’s claims that he received 40 million Shillings from her residence and intended to return it to the source.
While Among denies giving out the money, She also questioned the intention of the MP whose accusation, she says, is tantamount to abuse of the institution of Parliament.
