    Greater Masaka Parish Development model starts with a bang

    Former Governor Greater Masaka and now Minister of Defense and Veteran Affairs, The father of Greater Masaka, Hon Vincent Ssempijja Bamulangaki is leading a team of Ministers and technocrats traversing the Greater Masaka region, flagging off the Parish Development Model (PDM).
    Justine Nameere, the NRM activist and senior mobliser has called on the people of greater Masaka to be serious and get involved in the PDM.
    Government has plunged the biggest portion of the budget into PDM because Government wants to see everyone get out of poverty.
    “Please be cooperative and we fight poverty. I am not so well this week, am on sick leave therefore, but the campaign original owner and former Governor Greater Masaka is here to help you,” she said.
    The Honorable Minister will be live on different radio stations in the region everyday to spread PDM message.
