On 6th
September 2012 good hope foundation for rural Development under the EU project conducted a meeting on
the findings of service delivery an activity that was conducted by community
monitor in july 2012 in the areas of water and health in the four sub-counties of Nyahuka T.C ,
Kisubba , Sindira and Karusandara
respectively . In Nyahuka town council out of 49 water points, 09 are functional
and in kisubba out of 44 water points, 35 are not functional. Indeed this was
the reason for water borne related out breaks like cholera, 80% of the water
facilities are not owned by the community to an extent that there is no water
users fees and care takers. Any breakdown it’s the district water department
that comes in for repairers. Information from the community development
officers of these sub-counties conformed that some of the water users
committees are not trained due to constrained resources hence not knowing their
roles. There is need for immediate attention.
In the meeting
the town clerk Nyahuka T.C Ms Katusime Harriet thanked RWECO- and Good Hope for
their work on ground and continued support
while during the field in Bundibugyo, RICNET together with the Bundibugyo District Local Government, ushered in a new product " Bundibugyo District E-Society.
It was on 5th
September 2012 when staff from RIC-NET Yosia and Elijah were in full swing at
the district connecting the E-society. The equipments were received by the
district vice chairperson MR. Baluku Godfrey Mbalibula and UBC Bundibugyo
branch staff. By 6th September it was already functional with the e-society,
information sharing and dissemination in Bundibugyo will improve with the rest
of the world.
