Agnes Nandutu and Mary Goretti Kitutu were both ministers responsible for Uganda’s region of Karamoja, a region harshly impacted by poverty and insecurity. They are accused of stealing large amounts of roofing materials aimed at supporting vulnerable populations in the region, in the frame of a government-funded project. These materials have allegedly been redirected to politicians and their families. [1]
Nandutu has been charged with corruption in Uganda and her trial is still ongoing. [2]
