This Thursday, the
#LocalGOVT27 consultations continue in Mbale City, where the Minister of State for Planning,
@AmosLugoloobi, is engaging local leaders at Mbale Resort Hotel on the 2027/28 budget priorities.
The consultations bring together leaders from Soroti, Amuria, Kapelebyong, Namisindwa, Nabilatuk, Soroti City and Lugazi Municipality.
The Minister is breaking down what it means to achieve Uganda’s Tenfold Growth Agenda, with a strong focus on prioritising ATMS and key enablers.
He also challenged local governments to embrace digital solutions, particularly in procurement and local revenue mobilisation, noting that e-Governance is central to improving service delivery.
He emphasised that local leaders’ input is critical to shaping the national budget and called for their priorities to align with national development goals.
And as always, taxes matter, leaders were encouraged to promote tax compliance while ensuring citizens see better services in return.
