Local Government Minister Balaam Barugahara has expressed shock over the poor state of a Shs250 million mortuary at Ishongororo Health Centre IV in Ibanda District, which reportedly lacks functional refrigerators and basic facilities for handling bodies.
Mortuary attendant Allan Twesigye told the Minister that the facility has no loading bay or ramp to ease the movement of bodies. He also claimed that rats and cats enter the mortuary and eat the eyes of bodies kept there.
Twesigye further said refrigerators supplied by the Ministry of Health could not fit inside the structure and later disappeared.
The revelations were made during the #ExposeTheCorrupt campaign, which seeks to highlight alleged corruption and failures in public service delivery.
