🚨Ugandan court has ordered Moses Kigongo, the first national vice chairperson of the National Resistance Movement, to pay Shs 58 million in damages and costs to Diamond Glass Mart after losing a contract dispute over aluminium doors and windows at his Mpigi property.

The case stems from a Shs 120m contract signed in May 2019 for aluminium doors, window frames and glass works at Kigongo’s home and 10 cottages at Maya Nature Resort. Trouble began after Kigongo demanded bulletproof glass something the contractor said was never in the deal.

Kigongo paid Shs 83.25m, leaving Shs 36.75m unpaid, prompting Diamond Glass to sue. The firm’s director Ibrahim Lubega told court all works were completed, but payment was withheld. Kigongo and Mosa Courts Apartments denied owing money, blaming delays and claiming the aluminium supplied was thinner than agreed.

📌 Court ruling: Kigongo must clear the balance and pay damages—bringing the total to Shs 58m.
