This morning, Okili Jane Francis Amongin, the Resident City Commissioner of Gulu, took action by arresting four executive members of the Pakwelo Parish Development Model Sacco. They were accused of asking members for UGX 590,000 for registration purposes.
The suspects are currently being held in custody at the Gulu Central Police Station (CPS).
The allegations suggest that the Sacco executives were soliciting money from members under false pretenses. This action goes against the principles of transparency and honesty expected from individuals in positions of authority.
The decision to detain the suspects at the Gulu CPS indicates the seriousness with which the authorities are treating these allegations. It also serves as a warning to others who might be considering engaging in similar fraudulent activities.
Resident City Commissioner Okili Jane Francis Amongin’s swift action demonstrates the commitment of local authorities to uphold the law and protect the interests of the community. It sends a clear message that corruption and fraud will not be tolerated in Gulu.
