The Government Chief Whip who is also Ajuri County Member of Parliament Denis Hamson Obua handed over the iron sheets on Sunday at a function that took place at his home in Awei Sub County. Each of the six schools received 55 iron sheets. They include Omoro, Amugo, Akii Bua Comprehensive, Saint Tereza Girls Alanyi, Amugo Agro and Apami primary school. Obua said the iron sheets should help schools that were facing challenges of inadequate class room blocks. Omoro SS headteacher Peter Ocen said his school that was established in 1984 had been grappling with the challenge of lack of class room blocks.

The Police needs 340 billion to construct 10,000 police units per year. Assume Uganda Police comes with a Policy whereby a police officer who charges a traffic offender will take 50% of the charge and remit 50% to the police housing account with instant tickets. This will ensure the officer becomes more than willing to charge a traffic offender. Out of the 2m cars on the road per day, let’s assume at least 20,000 cars are charged per day. That will be only 1% of the total cars and an average charge of 100,000 UGX. The officer will take 50,000 and remit 50,000 to the Police housing account. That will bring 1 billion to the housing account per day, 30billion per month, 360 billion per year. By end of 6 years, all our Police officers will be housed in descend accommodation.
