This was during her communication in the house this morning as MPs observed a moment of silence in respect to the Indian Money Lender Uttam Bhandari who was shot dead by a police constable Ivan Wabwire last week at Raja Champers along Parliamentary Avenue.
Speaker Among says URBRA roles should be tightened especially on regulating money lenders who have become money sharks who charge exorbitant interest rates on clients.
It’s from this that Speaker Among asked the government by tomorrow to table a report in parliament in regard to the performance of the police exodus SACCO and also the progress at which the government has reached in setting up a salary review commission.
