{{Local leaders in Nyamasheke district have been given mobile phones to help them in their daily work and exchanging information with other relevant authorities.}}
The mobile phones will enable local leaders at Mudugudu level to communicate cost-free with all leaders including cell, sector, district and province levels.
Minister James Musoni noted that village leaders are important and thus need to be supported and facilitated to be able to execute their duties and responsibilities without any difficulties.
“The phones will enable you to provide vital information on time and thus receive prompt help”, Musoni told the village leaders who were also given an opportunity to suggest further ways of improving services at the grassroots level.
The local leaders requested the Minister to consider providing them with health insurance cover, a bicycle and a cow under the one-cow per family national program to also improve their lives.
Minister Musoni promised to honour the requests made by the local leaders however, stating that beneficiaries will be local leaders that exhibit better performance.
