As part of its programs, the government of Uganda decided to reward local council 1 chairmen around the country. Inside Makerere in bid to improve service delivery, halls have their own LC1s whose role among others is to solve slight issues, and validate documents by appending signature on especially passport forms. All halls are villages thus each village has a village Lc 1.
Last evening, a shiny black brand new bike was seen around Livingston hall, where the hall chairman, Okot Robert resides. He confirmed the reception of the bikes and jokingly added he’d ride the bike to law school .
All halls are expected to receive bikes within the next week. Allan Jankens the information minister however lamented that the idea is out of touch with reality, sport bikes would have been better considering the hilly MUK terrain.
The “flying pigeon ” bikes come with a basket, carrier, pump, screw driver and a spanner. Supplied by The Nile company, branded as” property of the republic of Uganda and Not for sale .” Valentine is sorted for these hall chairmen.
