“The Works and Transport docket is taking a lion’s share of the budget for 2017/2018 financial year with an allocation of more than Shs4 trillion going towards major infrastructure development projects such as roads and the railway which is good for Uganda’s economy,” Mira said.
She added that the government should have a bank of ready to implement projects with a clear financing model and management in order to enhance the Sub Sahara Africa economic growth which is too low in order to put the region back on a path of rising living standards.
