Now, Prime Minister Nabbanja has started talking in tongues.
She identified substandard blankets supplied to Kasese flood victims as relief.
They were put on air for all of us to see. She promised she would punish those of her officials responsible for supplying such substandard blankets and citizens applauded her for the prompt steps taken.
Now it seems she has discovered the network of suppliers are the usual untouchables.
She now has refered the matter to the IGG which IGG I think has not even been vetted.
This matter will now take twists and turns and before we know, it will be forgotten.
The prime minister has Powers to interdict if she so wished.
She could interdict the officials as invistigations by the IGG commence.
But it seems she may have sensed there could be an untouchable person behind the tender and is now taking calculated precautions by referring the matter elsewhere to save her job.
