Kabarole district councilors are leaving in a state of worries following the poor state of CAIIP roads constructed in different parts of the district.

Tugume Emmanuel the councilor Kasenda Sub County doubts the road designs under CAIIP program saying most roads are in a bad state and the murram is washed away just before a year after commissioning.

Citing Rwaihamba –Kanyaitamba road, Tugume observed the need for the district Engineer to ensure strict supervision of these roads during and after completion.
This was during the district council sitting at Kitumba East division, Fort Portal municipality of Monday.

Joseph Mashuhuko councilor Karambi wonders whether he contractors have a heart for the district because they usually do shoddy works on these roads.

Mashuhuko asked the Chief Administrative Officer to instruct his engineer to supervise and assess the roads being constructed so as to have long lasting roads.

Amon Rutenta the councilor Kibiito sub county asked the district Engineer to explain why he does not carry out serious supervision of the roads but fortunately he was absent.

 The speaker Hon. Clovice Mugabo strongly condemned the continued absenteeism of technical staff in council yet they have to answer some questions rising in council that require technical guidance.

End.
