On Monday, the State House Anti Corruption Unit working with Uganda Police arraigned former Gulu High School H/teacher, Picho Paul Kennedy, and former Senior Accounts Assistant, Okema Geoffrey before the Anti-Corruption Court in Kololo on charges of Causing Financial Loss and Conspiracy to Defraud.

According to investigations, Picho Kennedy and Okema Geoffrey, who were joint signatories to the Gulu High School account with Stanbic Bank, withdrew funds amounting to UGX 336,374,052, which were meant for Gayaza High School but had been credited to their school account by mistake.

”The accused then used the funds for personal use, knowing well that their actions would cause financial loss to the bank. They have been remanded until 21/02/2024,” says the State House Unit.
