The Anti-Corruption Coalition Uganda coordinator, Dr. Geoffrey Rwakabale, said the ministry influenced the appointment of Dr. Tiberus Muheebwa as project co-ordinator of the Global Fund to fight HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria in Uganda.
Rwakabale told journalists that Ernest & Young's recommendations were disregarded.
"We note that in utter disregard of these recommendations, the ministry, which is the appointing authority, made erroneous appointments," he said.
Rwakabale said Dr. John Mutu-mba, Gamba Osige and Eva Magambo emerged best candidates for project co-coordinator, civil society and private sector co-coordinator and private sector coordinator respectively.
