By Catherine Kigozi THe Kampala district secretary for finance Florence Nkalubo has said the council has released about sh80m in salary arrears for councillors. The money is to be paid before the end of this month. Nkalubo said the councillors had not been paid since October. She, however, said Kampala City council had secured enough money to pay them. "Councillors have not been paid their salaries and allowances because the council is in a financial crisis," Nkalubo said. She attributed the crisis to the central division court cases, which she said had made the district fail to realise its financial estimates. "We had estimated a lot of money from all revenue sources," Nkalubo said. Ends
