THE FATBOY SHOW : Museveni Defends Shs 100m Payouts to MPs.

President Museveni has come out strongly in defense of the controversial Shs 100 million payments reportedly given to Members of Parliament through classified funds, implying the money is part of strategic efforts to safeguard Uganda's sovereignty and peace, not personal enrichment.

In a message addressed to "Ugandans, especially the Bazzukulu," Museveni dismissed criticisms raised by opposition MPs—led by MP Kivumbi—and media outlets like the Daily Monitor, calling them tools of foreign interests.

"I saw a cluster of Opposition MPs, led by a one Kivumbi, expending a lot of energy on the supposed Shs. 100 million per person given to MPs through classified Funds," Museveni wrote, before accusing the group of ignoring more serious matters, such as foreign funds allegedly aimed at influencing Uganda's domestic policies.
