Tamale Mirundi became the press secretary to the president of Uganda six years back. But we now hear that his term of office expired last year but since that time he is still holding office and receiving the taxpayers’ money. Mirundi himself was overheard conforming to one of his friends, Buyondo Africa Ddamulira of Top Radio that indeed his term of office as presidential press secretary was expired and not yet renewed.

Tamale Mirundi was born in 1964 at Matale village in Rakai District. He was the 9th child to late John Mirundi and Mrs Molly Mirundi.

Tamale Mirundi was studied at Matale Mixed Primary School, Kampala High school and Makerere University where he graduated with a bachelor of Mass Communication.

Mirundi practiced journalism for sometime. Although he is not so a good writer, Mirundi was at a certain time one of the senior editors in defunct Munno Newspaper.

He was also one of the brains behind the defunct ‘The Voice and Lipota news bulletins respectively. Mirundi has written a number of notices which he calls books and he is always heard on radio stations bragging to whoever wants to listen that he is a publisher of books.
