On the corruption fight, MP Musana says it should be a shared responsibility, stressing that president Museveni alone cannot fight corruption in the country.
He says as the president takes mantle to fight corruption in high government offices and ministry departments, citizens should also play a role to fight corruption at grassroot level to improve service delivery.
