The Soroti City town clerk is entangled in a war of words with area councillors over non-payment of their benefits for the last nine months.
Mr Moses Otimong, the town clerk, said there are no binding terms between Soroti City and the former Soroti municipal councillors.
“I received a circular from the Ministry of Local Government immediately we were granted a city status, authorising that the council be disbanded,” he said.
Mr Karl Peters Emukon, one of the councillors, said the decision to lock them out upon the granting of the city status was a shield by the accounting officer to execute sinister intentions on matters of city boundaries.
