Hi John,
I will tell you that the answer to west nile power shortages is
getting FEDERO for region. That means local revenue is used according
to the priorities of the people in the region. As a friend of west
niles, it is very painful for me to see all tobacco revenues coming to
Kampala, without a coin  back to the region. I have been in texas for
the last one month. Man, each coin here in taxes counts to social
services
So federo is the way to go

 ELECTRICITY IN ARUA

  Dear brothers and sisters,

 In the past I have written so much about how electricity will change West
 Nile region if we had one or get there finally.

 In the 80's while I was teaching in Kenyan village of  Kissii Disctrict in
 thwe Nyanza province, I want to tell you guys that when you drive through
 Kissii at night, you will think you are some kind of city. The same thing
 is in Kericho, Nakuru, etc.

 Today, if you are in Kenya, you want to plug an equipment for a small
 business, there is electricity deep in the village.  Those of you who able
 to travel should one day take a group tour of Westen Kenya, see for
 yourself what I am talking about.

 If we had electricity in West Nile, you will soon see small businesses
 springing up. It is small busineses that create jobs. Whether they hire one
 of two, three, four or more  employees,  we will be on the way to address
 the unemployment situation in our region where 90% of the population leaves
 on subsitence farming.

 if we were all focused and work as a team to promote enterprenuership, we
 will have more job creartors than people who are seeking jobs.  The market
 potential in DR Congo and South Sudan for goods and services is endless.
 If we have well trained and educated workforce, the position of West Nile
 alone in this triad enclave is very strategic for delivering goods and
 services in either DR Congo Or South Sudan.

 The unfortunate part I see in this forum, we are not willing to discuss
 strategic ideas, nor are people willing to share substancial knowledge.
 Where do we go from here?

 and growth of the energy sector in West Nile.In Aru,DRC the Congolese have
 fully set up the infrastracture in anticipation for Nyagak,I see no effort
 on the
  Ugandan side how this resource will benefit the rural population across
 whose compunds powerlines run through to DRC!

 I recall visiting a friend in a village called Bukwali ,Fort Portal and I
 was pleasantly surprised to find every homestead deep in the vilage with
 electricity from Jinja! Let us expect that we shall be plugged by January
 2012.
