Jenifer Bamuturaki, the Chief Executive Officer – CEO of Uganda Airlines is in fresh trouble relating to USD 12,750 (about Shillings 48.6 million) she recieved as per diem for foreign trips that never happened. Per diem refers to a fixed daily allowance an organization provides to employees or contract workers to cover business travel expenses either inland or outside the country.

It has emerged that in June 2021, as then Acting CEO of the Airlines, Bamuturaki generated a requisition for the USD 12,750, which was approved by the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Works and Transport to facilitate her trips to 10 destination countries that never materialized. 



Bamuturaki was scheduled to travel to the Uganda Airlines offices in Johannesburg (South Africa); Kinshasa in the Democratic Republic of Congo; Juba in South Sudan, Dar-es-Salaam in Tanzania, Mogadishu in Somalia, Zanzibar, Burundi; Kilimanjaro, Mombasa, and Nairobi in the neighboring Kenyan and interact with the staff there.

However, during a meeting between the Committee of Commissions, Statutory Authority and State Enterprises – COSASE, and the airline officials led by Bamuturaki on Tuesday, a copy of the requisition was presented implicating the CEO for neither traveling nor refunding the money. Joel Ssenyonyi, the COSASE Chairperson, tasked Bamuturaki to provide proof confirming whether she traveled or not. 

Bamuturaki treated the question with a prolonged silence before she emotionally responded that she will only provide her answers in writing. Ssenyonyi pressed the CEO to be on record and explain the planned trips but she stood her ground insisting that will provide the answers to the Committee in writing.

Hashim Sulaiman, the Nebbi Municipality Member of Parliament accused Bamuturaki of being such an ‘arrogant’ and ‘big-headed’ public official who is targeting to undermine the Committee under the disguise of being ‘untouchable’ because she is a Presidential appointee.


Jesca Ababiku, the Adjumani District Woman legislator was concerned that pressing Bamuturaki to respond to the query against her will would waste the Committee’s time. She requested the committee to give her a time frame within, which to respond to the query in writing.



Bamuturaki is facing an integrity probe relating to influence peddling, conflict of interest, and flouting procurement guidelines when she recommended the Kenyan-based Ababaverta Media Agency that belonged to her close associate to undertake public relations for Uganda Airlines worth 1.537 billion Shillings instead of 654 million Shillings. 

Bamuturaki is also on the spot for the alleged lack of academic qualifications after she was erroneously appointed by the President in July. The Shillings 195 million official recruitment process initiated by the Airlines Board through PriceWaterHouseCoopers failed to come to fruition despite the fact that 40 candidates had applied for the CEO position. 



Bamuturaki and her top management team including the Company Secretary Bisereko Kyomuhendo, Paul Turacayisenga and the Director of Finance, and the Internal Auditors among others had returned to face the COSASE for the fourth time after two weeks of a break.

The Auditor General’s report implicated the Airline’s management for implementing 25 procurements outside the approved plan for the FY 2020/2021. For instance, the direct purchase of vehicles worth 103.2 million Shillings for the airline’s office in South Sudan.

In the report, the Auditor General also queried the entity’s property and equipment management after 1.127 billion Shillings was spent to purchase different assets, and yet the assets were not engraved to give them identification numbers and couldn’t be traced in the assets’ registry.

Further, the Auditor General reported that Dairoo Air Services – DAS, an Air Cargo airline at Entebbe that operated all-cargo services had billed Uganda Airlines USD 43,105 (164 million Shillings) for unpaid ground rent but a review of their invoice indicated they were paid USD 8,620 (32.8 million Shillings) in April 2021.

The probe continues on Wednesday.
