Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>A section of Members of Parliament has committed themselves to improving services at Kabateema Health Centre II in Lyantonde District.<\/p>\n

So far the legislators have contributed over Shs16 million towards the construction of modern lavatory facilities.<\/p>\n

Ms Pauline Kyaka, the Lyantonde District Woman MP, said their efforts are directed at how to improve the maternal health of all mothers.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs women of Lyantonde, we thank Mr Ben Kavuuya for his tremendous contribution towards women because this health centre which he started caters for over 10 mothers giving birth daily,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Ms Kemirembe also commissioned a maternity ward worth Shs130m she has built at the same facility to improve maternal healthcare services.<\/p>\n

The Health Centre which is located at Kabateema Parish in Kaliiro Sub County was constructed by the businessman and rancher in 2010 after he found an expectant mother giving birth in the bush in the area.<\/p>\n

According to Kavuuya, he was heading to his farm when he encountered this incident that triggered his heart to do something for the community.<\/p>\n

The health centre serves 40,000 residents from both Kaliiro Town Council and Kaliiro Sub County.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have brought 600 cartons of surgical gloves, a sucking machine, 120 mama kits, 5 pairs of gumboots and masks for health workers to use at the health centre as my gift for the brave women in Kabateema,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Ms Sarah Mateke Nyirabashitsi, state minister for children and youth affairs who was the guest of honour applauded the people of Lyantonde for electing leaders that can lobby for them.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am amused by the numbers of legislators present, I am seeing over 10 [legislators] here which indicates how Lyantonde leaders are good lobbyists and friendly to other colleagues,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

She appealed to other business people with the capacity to emulate Mr Kavuuya and support the communities they live in.<\/p>\n
