Government Chief Whip, Ruth Nankabirwa, says she will not deter NRM Members of Parliament from getting money meant to buy cars.
This comes after her counterpart the Opposition Chief Whip, Ibrahim Semujju Nganda, on Tuesday informed the media that FDC had stopped its Members of Parliament from receiving the 200 million shillings meant to buy cars and that they had instead asked them to take it as a loan if they felt they needed the cars.
Nankabirwa, says that she does not see anything wrong with a MPs getting cars to help them carry out their duties and says that if FDC refuses the money it will be used to do other government programs.
She adds that so far, MPs have impressed with the performance of government in these first three months although a number of them are new yet they have been able to conduct government business well.
