Anita Among is a Millionaire Turned Politician, Not the Other Way Round- Journalist Musamali Arnold
Speaker’s Opulent Lifestyle Recent revelations have brought to light the lavish lifestyle of the Speaker, prompting widespread astonishment across the nation. However, investigations indicate that the Speaker was already leading a life of affluence long before assuming office in parliament.
Before her political career, sources indicate that the Speaker had substantial personal wealth and wasn’t shy about discussing it with close associates.
Notably, she disclosed that her secondary school, Bukedea Comprehensive School, generated an annual net profit of shs2bn. Established in 2017, this venture predates her entry into politics and her subsequent rise to the Speakership. Additionally, she owns and operates other businesses including a hospital, radio station, and Skills Centre, all established before her tenure as Speaker.
According to insiders, the Speaker frequently emphasizes that she initiated these projects well before assuming her current role. One source stated, “She resents living a miserable life. She has tirelessly worked for them.” It’s noted that even during her time in the opposition FDC party, she actively contributed substantial funds to party activities before switching to the NRM.
Furthermore, sources close to her reveal that she personally funds her wardrobe, including the fashionable attire she is often seen wearing. While the parliament budget includes provisions for ceremonial attire such as expensive wigs and gowns, sourced from Common House Shop in London under Commonwealth protocols, it’s acknowledged that the Speaker sometimes utilizes her personal funds for clothing purchases.
Although the parliament occasionally covers expenses related to her attire, the Speaker reportedly remains detached from the procurement process. She merely provides measurements and later receives deliveries. Additionally, her security team benefits from the budget, procuring items like raincoats and tents.
