Parliament’s Committee on Commissions, Statutory Authority and State Enterprises – COSASE has summoned the Uganda Airlines boss Jennifer Bamuturaki to appear on Wednesday or get an arrest warrant.
The committee chairperson, Nakawa West MP Joel Ssenyonyi, was compelled to issue the summon after Bamuturaki failed to appear for a grilling session on Tuesday morning citing overriding priorities.
