Former Speakers of Parliament received a shiny start to their week as current Speaker Anita Among handed them brand new vehicles on Monday.

However, the former Speakers who are likely to receive their vehicles are: Al Haji Moses Kigongo, Edward Kiwanuka Ssekandi, Rebecca Kadaga, and Prof. Edward Rugumayo, all of whom served as Parliament’s speakers, received the vehicles on Monday, December 18, 2023.

Anita Among told uncoveredug news reporters that “I thank the Almighty God for keeping all of them alive to witness this great day when they returned to the August House they presided over many years ago.
