Anti-corruption officers arrested three top officials from Mpigi district for demanding money from job seekers. Martine Ssejjemba serves as the district chairperson and faces corruption charges. Fredrick Kirumira leads the District Service Commission and was also taken into custody. Sarah Nakamoga works as secretary for the same commission and joined the other two suspects. The State House Anti-Corruption Unit carried out these arrests after receiving orders from President Museveni.

Local people complained about widespread corruption during the president's visit on June 17, 2025. Citizens told officials that jobs were being sold to people who paid the most money. Bribes ranged from 500,000 shillings to 15 million shillings for different positions. Journalists and residents reported these problems during a Parish Development Model monitoring tour. The president immediately ordered investigators to look into these serious allegations.

The three suspects have been moved to Kampala and await formal court charges. Anti-corruption officials continue gathering evidence before filing legal cases against them. Similar problems occurred last year when David Mpuuga from Rakai district was arrested. He demanded 20 million shillings from someone seeking an agricultural officer job. Anti-corruption teams urge citizens to report any cases of bribery or abuse of power.
