Member of Parliament for Rukungiri municipality Dr. Elisa Rutahigwa has fulfilled his pledge by donating 100 bags of cement to support development projects at Rukondo Catholic Church and Rukondo Primary School in Western division, Rukungiri Municipality.
Dr. Rutahigwa yesterday handed over 50 bags of cement to the church located in Kafunda Cell and another 50 bags to Rukondo Primary School, both in Karangaro Ward, Eastern Division.
The legislator had earlier made these pledges while serving as chief guest during fundraising events at both institutions. Speaking at the handover ceremonies, Dr. Rutahigwa reaffirmed his commitment to fulfilling promises, unlike many leaders who make pledges and fail to deliver.
Dr. Rutahigwa commonly known as Omuturagye pledged to continue supporting places of worship, schools, and community groups without discrimination.

Samson Tindiwangye, the Rukondo Primary School head teacher revealed that he walks over nine kilometers daily to reach the school, something that affects him and other teachers’ performance.
Tindiwangye said the donation of cement from their legislator will help complete the staff quarters, enabling teachers to stay at school and improve academic performance.

At the church, the Development Committee Chairperson Lauben Ndyanabo and church catechist Annania Karugaba said their worship lacks residential housing for the catechist. They thanked the MP, saying the cement will enable them to begin construction of a house to accommodate the catechist at the church premises.
