Amama disowns Parliament on pathologist

Prime Minister Amama Mbabazi has disowned Rebecca Kadaga and the Parliamentary Commission on Dr Sylvester Onzivua, a pathologist hired by the House to take body parts of Butaleja MP Cerinah Nebanda to South Africa.

The Daily Monitor obtained a December 28 letter to Ms Kadaga, in which Mr Mbabazi, who represents the Executive on the Parliamentary Commission, said he had never attended a commission meeting that hired the services of the pathologist.

“I wish to state that am not aware that the Parliamentary Commission of which am a member was ever convened for that purpose and sat to take such a decision. When and how was it convened and where did it sit?” asked Mr Mbabazi.

The remarks come after the deputy Speaker, Mr Jacob Oulanyah, told police he was not aware of Dr Onzivua’s dealings with Parliament.
