(Ms.) Beatrice Adagala","speaker":{"id":13280,"legal_name":"Beatrice Kahai Adagala","slug":"beatrice-kahai-adagala-2"},"content":"I urge the Government to give village elders a monthly stipend to enable them work even at night. They use spotlights, and sometimes they may not have dry cells. Most of them do not have electricity in their homes. A monthly stipend would encourage them to work with the knowledge that they are working for the Government. It should be a small stipend to manage their daily lives or buy food for the family or for medical expenses."}
