President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has embarked on the monitoring process of the Parish Development Model (PDM) funds in order to eliminate irregularities in the system.


The revelation was made on Monday by the Senior Presidential Advisor on Political Mobilisation, Moses Byaruhanga while launching the monitoring process at Bunnya Foundation Primary School, P.W.D village, Luwero Town Council in Luwero District.

Byaruhanga said the National Resistance Movement (NRM) government has initiated several programs to benefit Ugandans, however, some have faced certain hindrances which the government has managed to solve or is looking forward to working on.

According to Byaruhanga PDM was initiated by the President as a strategy to improve service delivery and alleviate poverty at the grassroots level. He however says there some challenges which need to be ironed out. He also said that the President had appointed Hajjat Mariam Namayanja Kiwanuka as a Special Presidential Assistant to monitor PDM funds.

Richard Ssimbwa, the LCIII Chairperson for Luwero sub county complained about the parish chiefs who extort money from the beneficiaries.
