A web-based corruption reporting system for Kole district local government, northern Uganda.
(Busitema University, 2026) Omongo, Denis
Corruption continues to undermine public service delivery, accountability, and socio-economic development across local governments in Uganda. In Kole District, corruption associated with strategic government empowerment initiatives such as the Parish Development Model (PDM), Uganda Women Entrepreneurship Programme (UWEP), and Youth Livelihood Programme (YLP), among others, has degraded public confidence in local governance and severely affected the equitable distribution of public funds. Existing corruption reporting channels—primarily physical visits to sub-county headquarters, verbal reports to Local Council officials, or written complaint letters—are critically limited by geographical distance barriers, high transport costs, fear of retaliation due to the lack of a secure, trackable channel, and a total absence of post-submission tracking mechanisms. This study aimed to design, develop, and evaluate a secure, web-based corruption reporting system for Kole District Local Government to enable registered citizens to securely report corruption in either English or Leblango/Luo and monitor investigation progress using a secure tracking code. The research adopted a System Development Research (SDR) design executed through the Agile-Scrum methodology. Purposive sampling was used to select fifteen key stakeholders (N=15), consisting of PDM beneficiaries, Local Council leaders, civil servants, village savings group leaders, and community elders across six sub-counties (Aboke, Alito, Akalo, Ayer, Bala, and Okwerodot). Sample size adequacy was grounded in the data saturation principle for qualitative software requirements engineering (Guest et al., 2006). Primary data were collected via semi-structured interviews, direct field observation, and document analysis, and evaluated using thematic analysis. The developed application follows a Three-Tier Client-Server Architecture. The presentation layer was constructed using React.js (v18.x) and react-i18next for multilingual switching. The application tier was built using Python 3.11, Django 4.2+, and Django REST Framework (DRF), utilizing Gunicorn and WhiteNoise servers. The database tier relies on PostgreSQL for structured data and AWS S3 for secure media evidence storage. System security was implemented using authenticated, role-restricted request handling (no IP address or fingerprint logging in server logs), Fernet symmetric encryption for sensitive report descriptions at rest, TLS/HTTPS in transit, and JWT-based Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) for administrative management. Rigorous evaluation comprising Unit Testing, Integration Testing, System Testing, and User Acceptance Testing (UAT) with 5 representative field evaluators demonstrated that the application satisfied all specified functional and non-functional criteria. Evaluators awarded the platform an overall usability score of 4.8 out of 5.0, highlighting its ease of use, secure encrypted handling, and tracking code transparency. The study concludes that web-based civic platforms can substantially improve anti-corruption reporting in rural local governments. Recommendations include official adoption by Kole District Local Government, integration with central anti-corruption bodies (IGG, SHACU), and future expansion to USSD/SMS channels for non-smartphone users.

(Busitema University, 2026) Egadu, Paul
The preservation of ancestral lineage, generational trees, and localized cultural heritage faces severe structural degradation within the modern digital landscape. This crisis is vividly evident within the Ekadu Family situated in Odukurun Village, Soroti City, and Eastern Uganda. Traditional practices relying entirely on unrecorded oral histories, loose-leaf physical journals, and memory-based lineages are increasingly fragile, exposing historical records to the permanent risk of extinction through environmental hazards such as rain, fire, and termite infestation. This research project designed, implemented, and empirically validated a secure, scalable Web-Based Lineage Tracking System specifically tailored to digitize historical records, maps, and intergenerational connections. Employing a mixed-methods case study, the researcher gathered critical technical and sociocultural requirements from a sample of 10 family members. The study identified that while 10% of participants currently lack household smartphone access, there is a profound demand for modernization, with 90% ranking a centralized web platform as highly necessary to protect decaying records. The application backend architecture was constructed utilizing modular PHP scripts tied to an optimized, self-referencing relational MySQL database engine (ekadu_family) to manage complex "house unit" and multi-wife lineage structures. The frontend interface was engineered using mobile-first Bootstrap 5 style sheets and dynamic JavaScript. Rigorous User Acceptance Testing (UAT) yielded high performance benchmarks, confirming the system's ability to provide a "single source of truth." The findings conclusively demonstrate that implementing accessible, localized web database solutions provides a highly reliable paradigm for archiving indigenous lineage lines and enhancing organizational solidarity. It is recommended that the administrative leadership of the Ekadu family enforces the structured digitization of all remaining ancestral documentation to capitalize on the system's long-term operational resilience.
