PDM Boss grills Officers over Incompetence during Kisoro Visit

The PDM National Deputy Coordinator Jovrine Kaliisa has condemned the Kisoro District Commercial Officer and Parish Chiefs in the district for frustrating potential beneficiaries of the Government program by asking for bribes.

Kaliisa said complaints of negligence among Parish chiefs have been registered alongside inability to properly sensitize the masses on how to access PDM funds.

The comments were made yesterday during an inspection visit by Kaliisa who held a meeting at the Kisoro district Council Hall before proceeding to Nyundo Sub County.

Poor mobilization of community members surprised the National Coordinator who interfaced with less than 10 people because others had allegedly not been informed of the meeting.

Nyundo residents, while before Kaliisa said the Parish chiefs demand for 5000 Ugandan shillings per person in order for the paperwork to be expedited.

Others said, there lack of education has hindered them to understand the processes of opening up bank accounts and other requirements needed.

While at Kabahunde trading center, several residents demanded that those responsible for sensitizing communities about PDM should be arrested for their incompetence.

Kaliisa said Officers responsible for implementing PDM in Kisoro need to awaken from their deep slumber or else they face detention or arrest.

She apologized for the computer system that has been eliminating names that are eligible to benefit from the program.

According to Kaliisa, individuals can access up to one Million Shillings and this money should be used as startup capital for a venture that can increase on household income.

She further instructed that all PDM supervisors in the district should register people and money should be released to individuals by next week without fail.
