RICHARD BYARUGABA- the man who restored the “Security” in the National Social Security Fund of Uganda

For argument’s sake one can always dismiss Richard Byarugaba’s performance at National Social Security Fund (NSSF)- afterall the employers have no choice but to contribute; it is a statutory obligation. But that statutory obligation had always existed since 1985 when the Fund was founded by an Act of Parliament, but the kind of double digit growth present at the Fund was not always there. Neither has NSSF ever enjoyed the kind of scandal-free calm and stability, like has been witnessed especially in the last 5 years.
