    "content": "It is also good to note that the officers who sit in the Uwezo Fund offices in the constituencies are very demotivated. They are just earning salaries, but are helpless. They do not have money to move around to execute their mandate. The other challenge that needs to be addressed very quickly, and I am glad it is in the Report, is the issue of having to peg the performance of some groups on other groups that may not be performing. This is very discouraging for the groups that want to move on and have shown a lot of improvement and success in the use of the money. I am told there are some groups that have taken this money three or four times and they are now advanced and moving on. We can see their success. However, since we still have to peg their performance to the performance of other groups that are not performing, the groups have no resources to move on. This is very dangerous for the Fund. Another issue that I have noted is that having struggled, put in a lot of effort, tried to mobilise as many stakeholders as possible, participated in some of the meetings, hit the mark of 50 per cent and finally put our request in terms of proposals, the proposals have just been sitting at the headquarters for some time. This is another frustration."
