NRM CEC RACE! PHOTOS! WHAT MUKULA OWNS: Multi-Billion Empire Leaks After Critics Accuse Mukula Over Non Job Creation

By Francis Otucu

As the race for NRM’s CEC jobs continue to heat up, incumbents are stuck on defending why they should retain their seats while ‘newcomers’ are laying what they plan to do if elected. This is happening across all elective political positions.

Recently, Mike Mukula’s critics, in a bid to decampaign him in an ongoing battle for NRM Vice Chairman Eastern, revealed he has not used the office he intends to return to, to create jobs.

As a result, they want him out.

Not much is known about the faces behind these messages. However, it is not a secret that Mukula is faced with ex-Tororo Municipality MP Sanjay Tana for NRM’s top eastern job.

Mukula is yet to formally comment on the matter, in case he chooses to.

However, we have exclusively established a few of what Mukula owns under his multi-billion empire and an estimate of the number of people each one of them employs.

This news site understands Mukula owns a grain storage in Soroti. The storage has maize, wheat, sim-sim and other cereals in store. The storage directly employs over 500 people with over 1, 000 as indirect workers.

In the same town, Mukula owns Voice of Teso, a high-end radio station with a coverage of literally the entire Eastern part of Uganda. Insiders say the radio employees slightly over 50 permanent workers.

In terms of securing lives and property, the flight captain owns Arrow Security. The security company employs over 1, 500 workers across the country. The company is headquartered in Luzira, Nakawa, Kampala.

The former junior health minister has a fuel storage firm with a capacity of 4.7m litres. Under the same firm, there are four ships with a transport capacity and price tag of US$ 270million.

Also, under his Asante Group, he employs over 500, both directly and indirectly, to handle food and value chain, on top of value addition.
