The LC three chairman Nyabubare sub-county in Bushenyi district; Karoli Rwamuganga has failed to block plans by the Ministry of local government to create Kizinda town council.
In a letter dated 5th October 2017, minister of Local government; Col.Tom Butime says three town councils in Bushenyi district have been created. They include; Kizinda, Bitooma, and Kyabugimbi that will become operational effective July 1,2018.
Yesterday, Rwamuganga visited Kizinda parish to make consultation about creation of the town council, but residents turned against him accusing him of sabotaging the area’s development. At Kigoma parish which is part of the new town council, his meeting aborted because there was no quorum.
They chased him away arguing that there was no need of consultations since the ministry has already granted the parishes a town council status.
Earlier in 2010, Nyabubare sub-county leaders blocked attempts by the ministry of local government’s plans to add Kizinda on Bushenyi-Ishaka municipality.
