SIR — In your issue of July 22 it was reported that Mukono had received sh300m for roads. I wish to correct that error.
The district has so far received sh150m out of the budgeted and anticipated sh300m from Danida for the road programme.
The money will help rehabilitate the Buyekera Nakiwate and Kasawo-Lwajjali roads in Nakifuma county.
I thanked President Yoweri Museveni for funding the district especially in the road sector because almost 98% of the funds come from the central government.
but I also reminded him of the pledge he made in 2002 to rehabilitate the Kyetume-Kisoga-Nkokonjeru-Najja-Nyenga which is in an appalling situation.
Lastly, I said that the new ferry plying the Kiyindi-Kirongo route operates on a 19-year-old engine which is an encumbrance. A second and new engine is needed.
