The list had a lot of new faces for both RDC and their deputies and it was rumored that some parted with a certain amount of cash towards the ministry for presidency to appear on the list some thing that those accused blatantly denied. The appointments brought smiles on majority who had waited for this gig but it left those who were dropped heartbroken.
Consequently a total of 64 RDCs and Deputies were dropped and this never go well with them since they had to adapt to a new life which is blankly civilian. Walking away without any compensation seemed too tough for the fired RDCs since their jobs are not pensionable like the civil servants.
These recollected themselves and requested to meet president Museveni who is the appointing authority. They met him at state house Entebbe on 8th July 2022 and the president thanked them for serving their nation and tasked them to support the current and newly appointed RDCs to ease service delivery to the people.
The dropped RDCs came out of state house smiling ear to ear when the big man promised that they will be given something to keep their pockets active and he requested for the list of those affected.
