\u201cAnd we the government of Eastern Equatorial together with the municipal will have to use the funds from the people to deploy back to the people. It looks so promising. Today we are seeing the first phase of the rehabilitation within the ministry’s road and the roads in town and you did mention clearly that it will later move to the central areas,\u201d Oyito narrated.<\/p>\n
