Additionally, Medicine worth 50 million disappeared and seven million shillings meant for the repair of the generator was swindled after it was repaired by former junior minister for Health Mike Mukula.
And at least more than three strikes were staged by staff in month July protesting against the administration.
In August, the RDC soroti, was forced to convene a meeting with the hospital administration and the staff, intended to diffusse the tension at the hospital.
Achiro says they are aware of the problems in the hospital and said that they are working with the police to investigate the matter.
