Kampala, Uganda | URN | The Appointments Committee of Parliament has reportedly queried the academic papers of three Ministerial appointees and asked them to put their papers in order.
The three are part of close to 20 ministerial nominees vetted between Monday 14th and Tuesday 15th, June 2021.
Isaiah Sasaga, the Budadiri East MP, a member of the committee, says that some of the appointees had missing documents.
He says that others had varying names on their Ordinary and Advanced level certificates.
One of the appointees who was turned away because of inconsistency in their name is Babirye Milly Babalanda whose name appeared as Mariam Doka Babalanda on the cabinet list.
