Police of Kwania Central Police Station have arrested the Community Development Officer of Atongtidi Sub County, Moses Ogolo for extorting money from people intending to benefit from Parish Development Model.

The deputy RDC of Kwania District Proscovia Acam confirmed Moses Ogolo’s arrest to Voice of Lango FM.

Acam said she ordered police to arrest Moses Ogolo after getting a lot of concerns about him asking people who are registering for Parish Development Model to pay between Shs 100,000 to Shs. 120,000.

Acam said that at the time of Ogolo’s arrest he was found receiving money from people and he was whisked off to Kwania central police station as investigation against him continues.

She added, they will task Ogolo to refund the money asking the public not to pay money to benefit from Parish Development Model which is free of charge.

Kwania District, vice chairman Geoffrey Eling Owera warned that they will not tolerate acts of corruption in the implementation of the parish development model and those implicated in the vice will be followed with the law.
