She said that leaders including the president must clearly give messages that create awareness for family planning other than expressing commitments which cannot be fulfilled.

Recently the president made commitments on the issue of family planning while in London and later he urged Ugandans to produce as much as they can when they are not yet in the middle class the statements Najjemba says are inconsistent.

She says that as parliament they will follow up on the commitments and sensitize the public about family planning.

The president while in London said that government will increase its allocation for family planning from USD 3.3million to USD 5 million and mobilize an additional USD 5million from donors.
