Questions have emerged over the role of former Speaker Rebecca Kadaga in a high-level State House meeting involving President Yoweri Museveni, Speaker Anita Among, and senior political figures, as details of the closed-door discussion continue to leak.
Multiple sources familiar with the meeting indicated that Kadaga was invited to provide clarification on parliamentary financial procedures drawn from her decade-long tenure as Speaker of Parliament.
According to the sources, her input focused on how parliamentary financial systems were structured and administered during her leadership, although it remains unclear why those procedures were specifically relevant to the broader discussions held at State House.
The meeting, held at State House, Entebbe, reportedly brought together President Yoweri Museveni, Speaker Anita Among, and former Speaker Rebecca Kadaga, alongside other political and religious leaders.
Sources say the discussions extended beyond parliamentary administration to broader governance issues, including corruption and public accountability.
It is further reported that some of the conversation took a more critical tone, with allegations raised against one prominent political figure present in the meeting.
That individual was reportedly singled out over corruption claims and accused of engaging in questionable associations, including alleged links with a foreign religious and political figure referred to only as “a Prince.”
The identities of the individuals mentioned have not been independently verified, and the claims remain unsubstantiated.
According to insiders, Kadaga’s presentation was largely technical, aimed at explaining how financial procedures operated during her tenure, including budgeting flows and internal parliamentary controls.
However, the sources did not clarify whether her explanations were being used for comparison with current parliamentary systems or as part of an accountability review.
The discussion also reportedly touched on broader governance concerns, with participants debating corruption trends within public institutions and the need for tighter oversight mechanisms.
The meeting concluded shortly after 3pm, with participants said to have agreed on a set of political recommendations expected to be communicated publicly in the coming days. However, details of those recommendations remain undisclosed.
