#UPDATE. According to reports, following recent total blackouts across the country, reports indicate that CDF - Gen Muhoozi is set to make arrests of top UEDCL-UMEME officials and also clean up the electricity body -Uganda's main electricity distribution company. We have learnt that Gen Muhoozi is very annoyed by how officials in UEDCL operate and that the corruption in the company has turned into a security threat to the country and the economy. Intelligence reports indicate that the on and off darkness might be the work of mafias in government. Recently the Parliament intensified scrutiny of one of the country's most significant energy sector transactions, summoning officials from the Ministry of Finance, Planning and Economic Development to explain discrepancies surrounding the financing of the government's buyout of electricity distributor Umeme Limited. The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) issued the directive after hearing detailed testimony from the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Development, Eng. Irene Bateebe, who traced the complex sequence of events leading to the conclusion of Umeme's 20-year electricity distribution concession in March 2025 and the subsequent government acquisition of the utility's unrecovered investments.
