Busoga radio presenter Resty Nanteza, popularly known as Nakapachu, has been arrested over allegations of defrauding more than 200 job seekers of over Shs600 million.
Nanteza, who allegedly operated under the Nakapachu Foundation, is accused of collecting between Shs500,000 and Shs4.5 million from individuals while promising to secure them jobs abroad.
Jinja Resident City Commissioner Salim Kumakech confirmed receiving more than 200 complaints against her, prompting a joint security operation that led to her arrest.
She was arrested at Jinja Central Police Station and is expected to be transferred to the CID headquarters in Kibuli, Kampala, for further investigations.
Nanteza has reportedly offered to refund the victims, although questions remain about her ability to repay the alleged amount.
