Comrades,
These are indicators that there are problems in our region and therefore the more reason WNF gets involved in the affairs regarding the local governance in our area. I think we need to use this case as starting point, but approach it objectively. In my opinion, we would request the local leaders to give their side of the story. I am sure issues like delays in the procurement process, late release of funds by the ministry etc will surface. But I know that local governments work on annual plans and any such issues, especially procurement related could be partly a result of improper planning. Please let us have the accounting officer on board to give us a clip of what happened. From this, we can make contributions for improvement.

The money was meant for service delivery during the 2009/10 Financial year. The Sectors that failed to use the money are works and water departments (1.1bn), Education shs 322 Million and peace recovery and development program (276M). The unspent monies were meant for construction of community roads, drilling of bore holes, construction of schools and maintenance of feeder roads that is according to the secretary finance Arua District Local Government one Sam Wadri Nyakua. This scenario is so annoying. We are breaking our backs to ensure that our region copes up with the rest in terms of development, our local leaders are obdurately failing us. what are your comments ladies and gentlemen.
