The Speaker of Parliament, Rebecca Alitwala Kadaga, has directed the Parliamentary Committees on Works, Education, Health and Finance including respective ministries to speed up the assessment of giving Kibuku district government services which are urgently required for the communities.

Kadaga made the directive while at the thanksgiving ceremony of the area MPs who included; the minister of state for local government, Jenniffer Namuyangu  as well as Kibuku district L.C5 Chairperson, Charles Kadiama held at Kasasira church of Uganda play ground in Kibuku district.

Kadaga wants Kibuku district to be given a government hospital, vocational school and a road network to enable the local community improve on their lives in many ways.

She also told the people in Kibuku to disregard the media reports that Parliament is to waste 68 million shillings on each MP’s burial when death occurs to any.

She says that the 68 million shillings is required for the burial of a Member of Parliament since it takes time and much preparation for burial of such people’s representative.

She adds that it is unfair to fundraise for the burial of an MP when it’s almost the same amount which civil servants consume for their burial.

The MP for Kibuku County, Herbert Kibonere and Namuyangu said  that they were still lobbying government to give their district seven Sub Counties for effective service delivery to their people.
