President Museveni has blamed some of the government’s failures on a section of ‘lazy and useless’ lawmakers whom he criticised for not identifying problems affecting citizens and monitoring government projects in their respective constituencies.
Mr Museveni, who was addressing youth leaders and the business community from Greater Masaka on Tuesday, said some MPs, especially the NRM members who form the bulky of legislators in the House, focus on raising their salaries and fighting for tickets to go on foreign trips at the expense of serving poor Ugandans.
“Some NRM legislators are lazy, they cannot even monitor projects in their constituents, but on the other hand those from Opposition are useless and simply cause confusion,” the President said.
