Uganda Airlines’ CEO search that never took off cost govt Shs890m
Government committed at least Shs890m on the search for a substantive Uganda Airlines chief executive officer that never happened, according to people familiar with the matter.
Multiple sources that spoke to Monitor but asked to remain anonymous because they are not authorised to speak about the matter, indicated that government had contracted PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) to conduct the search at a sum ranging between Shs800m and Shs1b.
However, the job was last Tuesday handed to Ms Jenifer Bamuturaki, two days ahead of PwC’s July 8 deadline for receiving applications.
PwC had on June 24, published an advert in which it invited interested persons within and beyond Uganda to apply for the Uganda Airlines chief executive officer job, indicating July 8 as the deadline.
