The Uganda National Teachers’ Union (UNATU) has expressed concerns regarding the methods used by Minister of State for Local Government Balaam Barugahara during school inspections in Uganda. UNATU criticized the minister for the alleged irregular arrest and public humiliation of headteachers and education officials. While supporting the government’s anti-corruption efforts, the union believes the minister’s approach is inappropriate. UNATU General Secretary Filbert Baguma has spoken out against these "unguided" inspections. The union has not specified the locations of the schools inspected by Balaam Barugahara. The Observer Media Ltd. first reported on this developing situation in Uganda. UNATU seeks a more constructive and respectful approach to addressing issues within the Ugandan education system.
