That should be the question,\u201d President Museveni said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am happy to hear that now you agree with me that value addition is a minimum position for all of us; for me and you. Once we have good roads and electricity in place, all other sectors will follow, but let\u2019s start with power and electricity,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Museveni further urged the MPs to always prioritise key sectors in budget allocation, saying once key sectors like roads and electricity are worked on, the rest of the areas can also be worked on.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn NRA [National Resistance Army], we learnt what we call Okusosowaza [prioritise],\u201d The President asserted.<\/p>\n<p>The President also agreed with the legislators that in case of any issues, mostly about presidential proposals, the NRM Parliamentary Caucus will sit with him in a caucus and resolve the matters amicably.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOnce we have an urgent issue, we call the caucus, meet, discuss and agree,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>About district roads, President Museveni agreed with the legislators that each district should receive Shs1 billion for murram roads, saying the roads boost development.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese murram roads are good if they are worked on and drained well,\u201d President Museveni said.<\/p>\n<p>On district hospitals, the President proposed that health centres IIIs and IVs be empowered with doctors as those facilities are the first areas for the management of various diseases. He also rooted for prevention methods right from the unborn babies through attendance of antenatal clinics, immunization, among others other than treatment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/uganda\">Uganda<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Uganda.
