Dear colleagues, a) Last year we had nominated a task Force to look into the education issues in West Nile region. When the the President announced an offer of Public University for West Nile region, the education task force was asked to follow up on it. To date there has been no update. I think the task force should hold itself accountable to this group that is forming up.
b) It appears another task force for a university was formed in 2007. No one knows about their successes or faillures. Could these two task forces team up and work on the university issue? c) All of us should learn lessons from other regions. If other people in the Uganda can work together to pursue their development agenda, who do we expect to come and plan or execute what we want? We can only blame ourselves for not taking no actions, not providing leadership, failing to work as a team, and doing nothing about our own predicament. We all have a stake in our underdevelopment. d) Thanks to every one who has volunteered to help to address various issue last year. While it is true that we are all busy professional in our careers, sacrificing a little of your time either in a month or so is worth the effort. Volunteers sacrifice so much time and resources in building nations and solve problem around the world. We should continue to encourage and inspire ourselves to do better. Rome was not built in a day. e) West Nile Foundation(WNF) needs leadership and direction from all well wishers. It is at initial stages of development. This is a time your leadership skills are needed most. Please encourage others who have not come on board. The foundation does not have a capacity to tackle many issues yet but the current executive needs a lot of support from every one. f) As mentioned by Vasco, we have too many issues at stake. We may not be able to address these various issues simultaneously, however, Special committees can be appointed to look at some strategic problems just like the education task force. g) As we continue to envolve as highly skilled professional group, some key issues identified should not not be put on hold indefinitely. We should hold ourselves accountable to each other. If you accept a responsibility, please execute your duties in a professional manner. Communicate effectively to others so that people are not left pondering what's happening to an issue being addressed. Cheers Avudria
