Among sends NUP MP to Discipline Committee over Claims that Ebola Does not Exist

The speaker of Parliament Rt. Hon. Anita Among has summoned the Rubaga North lawmaker Abubaker Kawalya to help the house understand why he is Ebola-skeptic, contrary to the stand of the Ministry of Health.

Hon. Kawalya, a lawmaker who subscribes to the opposition National Unity Platform party is alleged to have made the remarks on television according to a report tabled before plenary by the junior Minister for health Hon. Margaret Muhanga.

The speaker has now summoned Kawalya to show up and justify his allegations that Ebola is a ‘myth.’ She has directed that Parliamentary committee on rules, privileges and discipline to institute a probe into why the elected leader whose constituency is presently said to be the epicenter of the Ebola virus disease is in disbelief with what the Health Ministry asserts on the same.
