Five former speakers of parliament Prof Edward Rugumayo of the third parliament, Amb Francis Butagira of the fourth parliament, Alhaji Moses Kigongo of the fifth parliament, former vice president Edward Ssekandi of the seventh and eighth parliaments, and Rebecca Kadaga of the ninth and 10th parliaments have received posh SUVs, each estimated at nearly Shs650m. The cars is for the comfort of these former speakers – and perhaps to shield them from potholed roads government is struggling to fix.
