Parliament has tasked the government to explain how Bank of Uganda accounts were allegedly hacked, resulting in the theft of approximately Shs60 billion.
The matter was raised by the Leader of the Opposition in Parliament, Joel Ssenyonyi, following media reports that over Shs60 billion had been stolen from the central bank in less than a minute.
The State Minister of Finance in charge of General Duties, Henry Musasizi, confirmed the incident but dismissed the reported amount as exaggerated. He revealed that two courses of action were being pursued and that a comprehensive statement would be presented within a month.

The Speaker of Uganda’s Parliament, Ms. Anita Among, told uncovered news reporters that. “We cannot discuss what is being investigated. It is good we have the information in one month’s time when we come back. We shall be able to ask the minister to give us feedback.”.
Here at uncoveredug.com, we are following up everything to ensure that the people of Uganda know what is happening in their country.
In conclusion, such theft leads to underdevelopment of the country’s economy, so we encourage the government of Uganda to take serious action about the incident.
