Bugishu Cooperative Union Chair Nandala to Defend Seat

Campaigns are underway to select a new Board of Directors at the Bugisu Cooperative Union after Union members threatened to seek the intervention of the commissioner for cooperatives, accusing the old board of refusing to relinquish power, 3 months after the expiry of its term on 31st March this year. According to the farmers, there were concerns the outgoing board was buying time to doctor books of accounts, which are critical in determining the growth of the union.
