JINJA mayor David Wakudumira has lashed out at rumourmongers in the municipality, saying they are saboteurs of development.
The remarks follow recent reports that traders petitioned the Inspector General of Government (IGG) to investigate him and the resident district commissioner, Mugisha Muhwezi, over allegations of corruption, abuse of office and interference with the work of the urban tender board.
They reportedly accused Wakudumira and Muhwezi of leaking a report of the tender board technical evaluation committee.
Addressing the press in his office on Saturday, Wakudumira said the claims were baseless and unfounded.
He said the petitioners were after instigating insecurity and halting development projects.
