A cross section of Kamwenge town council councilors have castigated Tugume Elastus the area Health Inspector for failing his mandate resorting to harassing low income earners.
On Thursday last week, Tugume assaulted Mudoogo Faizo accusing him of preparing chapatti along Kamwenge- Mbarara road beyond the recommended time. It all started after Tugume found Faizo preparing chapatti after 8:00am in the morning. Before he could defend himself, Tugume boxed Faizo in the chick and in retaliation, the chapatti man also exchanged back.
Using his authority, Tugume rushed to police and recorded a statement. Police swung in action and arrested Faizo over allegations of assaulting a public servant. He has since been released on police bond.
However, the action of Tugume has not gone well with some councilors who are casting him for failing his mandate and resort to harassing low income earners. Councilors say that Tugume had no mandate to chase a way food vendor along the street since they were allowed by a council resolution.
Enock Kakuhikire the town clerk Kamwenge has refused to comment on the matter saying it’s before police.
