Caleb, Its truly annoying but did he give reasons why. I know of moments when Bushenyi has found itself in similar situations perhaps because of what they now call absorption capacity that John Nasasira's referred to when asked why the hefty 1 trillion for roads was not utilized. But Kanungu complained of bureaucracy and late releases especially where the PPDA guidelines to procure goods, services and civil works applies.
One proposal to solve this problem was to look into the guidelines and reduce on unnecessary red tape at the Ministry of Finance (Azabo). Now I am sure our own in Government who are well versed with these systems may want to educate us the laymen. But should it be sheer incompetence on the part of our program implementers, then the idea of creating as many districts as there are counties might now gain credence. Over to you fellows and all the best.
