make phone calls while cars passed by.

security operatives who surrounded the president as he hailed the people
who gathered to see him.
The President who made the phone call for about 30 minutes later
talked to the residents who hailed him for the tarmacking of the 74
Kilometre road that links Uganda to Tanzania through Kikagati in
Isingiro District. The road was constructed at a cost of Shs178 billion.

of batteries which are now at Shs400,000 and to power distributors to
make electricity cheaper.
