Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>The chairperson of Kiboga District has suspended his deputy on allegations of insubordination.<\/b><\/p>\n

Mr Gerald Nsiro Ssalongo, said he also suspended Mr Moses Ssenjogera over poor service delivery and lack of respect for oath of secrecy in a January 9 letter.<\/p>\n

\u201cI gave the vice chairperson powers to represent me on different occasions and serve the people of Kiboga but he has failed to deliver. He wanted to fail me as district chairperson by failing to deliver. I have decided to terminate his services as the vice chairperson and the district\u2019s secretary for education,\u201d he said on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou will stay out of office until the new vice chairperson is announced in the next council meeting,\u201d part of the January 9 letter reads.<\/p>\n

On Monday Mr Ssenjogera told journalists: \u201cThe chairperson has no powers of interdicting me from office because the guidelines for interdiction are not within his means as he alleges. Yes, he can remove me from the office of vice-chairperson but I am still a district councillor.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no merit in his accusations. I don\u2019t see any acts of insubordination and poor service delivery, in the cases that have been brought against my name. This is witch-hunt and cowardliness,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Some councillors said the duo is jostling for power.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt one of the functions on December 25, 2023; the vice chairperson reportedly announced that he would contest against his boss in 2026. We highly believe that the political temperatures are behind the new changes that saw the district vice chairperson lose his position,\u201d a councillor who preferred to have his identity protected for fear of being dragged into the scuffle claimed on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
