A major reshuffle has taken place at state house. President Museveni has reportedly sacked his key staff at State house over reasons best known to him.

The statehouse officials who have faced the axe include the head of the legal department, Joy Kabatsi and private secretaries to the president, Geoffrey Atwine, Juliet Kaliisa and Edward Muhoozi.

The said sacked state house officials were last month at the centre of the controversial 142 billion shillings compensation deal toKampalabusinessman, Hassan Basajjabalaba.

The police have also since last week been investigating Kabatsi and her colleagues to establish their role in the inflated Basajjabalaba claims. Recently two cabinet ministers, Syda Bbumba and Khiddu Makubuya resigned from cabinet over their role in the Basajjabalaba compensation deal. The governor Bank of Uganda, Tumusiime Mutebile is also being investigated over his role in the botched Basajjabalaba deal.
