After a month-long investigation into the raid on the office of Lands Registry Commissioner Baker Mugaino by the Inspector General of Government (IGG) Beti Olive Namisango Kamya Turwomwe, shocking revelations have emerged.
The raid, which was initially touted as a crackdown on corruption, appears to be a witch-hunt aimed at Mugaino.
The Raid and Its Aftermath
On April 24th, 2025, IGG officials raided Mugaino’s office, supposedly to search for evidence of abuse of office and corruption.
The following day, the IGG directed the Permanent Secretary at the Ministry of Lands, Dorcas Okalany, to interdict Mugaino, citing alleged fraud and unlawful transfer of land titles.
However, the prosecution’s efforts have been marred by controversy, with Mugaino successfully challenging his interdiction in court.
A Personal Vendetta?
Our investigation suggests that the pursuit of Mugaino is a personal vendetta by the IGG, Beti Kamya, with a hidden agenda to cover up her own alleged involvement in fraudulent activities. The IGG’s son, Arnold Patrick Turwomwe, is the Chairman of the Divestiture Committee of the Departed Asians Property Custodian Board, raising questions about a potential conflict of interest.
New Developments
Meanwhile, in a separate case, three former KCCA officials, including Executive Director Dorothy Kisaka, her Deputy David Luyimbazi, and Director of Public Health Dr. Daniel Okello, were granted bail after being incarcerated for alleged criminal negligence related to the Kiteezi landfill tragedy. The trio faces 57 charges of manslaughter linked to the deaths of over 30 people.
A Pattern of Corruption?
As we continue to investigate, it appears that the IGG and her family are embroiled in multiple scandals involving fraud and corruption. The acquisition of land by KCCA, including a 100-hectare piece in Mawokota and another in a Central Forest Reserve in Buvuma, raises questions about the integrity of government officials. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
