"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is the upgrading of the Busia Water Project. If you look at the designs of that water project, it was to benefit both Nambale and Amagoro constituencies. But, currently, the works are being undertaken but, you will find that the pipes â very good pipes and very good work is being done â are being passed through Teso. But the supply of water is being taken to the Busia side. That is very offending because, previously, those pipes were being extended even to the Teso and Nambale side. I appeal to the people who are concerned because we, the people of Amagoro, are not going to take it very kindly. The pipes are passing through our land and yet, the water is supplied elsewhere. We would like to benefit from that very good project. We want the people on the side of the Busia Town, which is in Teso, also to benefit from that piping. I am making that appeal because the Permanent Secretary comes from there and he understands that problem. The last point where that project is supposed to end is my house in the village on the Teso side. All the surrounding areas should, at least, benefit from that water."
