The New Vision article reports on the findings of CoST Uganda’s 2025 Independent Review Report, which identified accountability and transparency gaps in road infrastructure projects implemented under the Ministry of Local Government. While the review acknowledged improvements in project disclosure and oversight, it highlighted persistent challenges, including inadequate compliance with transparency standards, weak project monitoring, and inefficiencies in project implementation. The report calls for stronger accountability mechanisms, improved disclosure practices, and enhanced stakeholder engagement to ensure better value for public investment and more effective delivery of local government infrastructure projects.
