Pader town mayor cautions public servants to take care of office property

By Wasswa Deo

The Pader Town council Mayor Wodacholi Llama has expressed disappointment in government officials who do not take good care office property and materials.

Llama who has been walking to his office for the last nine months says the official motor bike was destroyed beyond repair by former mayor Omona Lapit.

This is among the many cases that have been  documented by Action aid, democratic governance facility and office of IGG for further investigations in regard to the misuse of government property.

Wodacholi says sometimes he has to request friends for lifts in order to be at work early.

The mayor has also gone for three months without salary and that he only survives by the top up for the mayor of less than 150,000/= per months and he was told by district chief administrative officer that there was an error that led to his name being scrapped off the pay list.

Christine Iga, a senior inspector says the office of IGG needs more support from communities in ending corruption to ensure that the entire country realizes better service delivery.
