The Uganda Revenue Authority Commissioner General, Doris Akol, has reshuffled her top most management in a move meant to boost efficiency at the tax body and take it back to the glorious days.
In a staff memo sent to all URA employees on Friday morning, Ms Akol made various changes to her management.
It is not yet clear, whether the untimely reshuffle is in any way connected to the Shs6bn presidential handshake from the oil cases.
But URA Manager Public and Corporate Affairs, Ian Rumanyika, said the reshuffle was normal and nowhere related to the purported ‘handshake’.
Ms Robinah Nakakawa, has been moved from Large Taxpayer Office to Service Management.
