Kampala. Questions over the eligibility of ministers holding dual citizenship dominated proceedings yesterday as Ugandan Parliament’s Appointments Committee began vetting President Museveni’s Cabinet and State ministerial nominees.
The issue surfaced during the appearance of businessman and Trade minister-designate Sanjay Tana before the committee, with legislators seeking clarification on reports that he holds dual citizenship, which would render him ineligible for appointment to a ministerial office under the law.
However, committee members said Mr Tana denied the allegations and explained that he is a Ugandan citizen by birth.
