DEPUTY Minister of State in the President's Office (Regional Administration and Local Government), Dr Festo Dugange has directed District Executive Directors for Kilolo and Bukoba Urban Districts to submit to the ministry reports on the progress of the construction of health centres in their areas.

He said the ministry wanted the reports assess the possibility of replenishment of the budget to complete the projects.

The deputy minister said the government is aware of the challenges facing residents of Lyamgungwe Ward in Kalenga constituency in seeking health services. She said residents of Kilolo have so far made good progress in building the centre and that they were asking the government to support them to complete the construction.

"In that case where the ward has a total of 16,000 residents, it is obvious there is need for having a health centre to serve this population, I would like to hear the government plans on this matter," she asked.
