Kabarole district chairperson, Richard Rwabuhinga, has directed parish chiefs who solicited twenty thousand Shillings only as a requirement to register each enterprise group under the Parish development model (PDM), to refund it with immediate effect.
Notably, eight groups from Kabarole parishes, were forced to pay the twenty thousand shillings, and Rwabuhinga warns that failure to refund it, the parish chiefs risk facing an interdiction.
“On Monday june 202022, next week they should pick their interdiction letters from the office of the Chief Administrative Officer.” Noted Rwabuhinga.
Addressing the parish chiefs and town agents of Kabarole, Rwabuhinga warned them against sabotaging government programs aimed at fighting poverty at household level.
This, was at Kitumba, during the training on Financial Inclusion.
Sub county in which funds were solicited
In his address, the district chairperson spared the sub county in which the parish chiefs solicited funds for PDM registration. A reliable source who has preferred anonymity, has however established that it was Karangura Sub County.
Lt. Col. Ronald Lubaale ,the Coordinator PDM Rwenzori region, asked the parish chiefs to be in charge and be role models in their communities.
He also requested them to form and select enterprises that will absorb the funds sent at parish level.
In his national address recently, president Museveni warned that any officer who sabotages the Parish development model program, will be nabbed and prosecuted in courts of law.
