According to reports, outgoing Bukoto South MP Twaha Kagabo has reportedly stopped the free medical services he had been offering to residents in his constituency following his defeat in recent parliamentary elections.
Dr. Kagabo, a medical doctor by profession, had joined politics and gained popularity in Bukoto South, for organizing free surgical camps, subsidized treatment, and providing an ambulance service to support patients in emergency situations.
Many residents, particularly vulnerable families, benefited from the initiatives during his five-year term in Parliament.
However, shortly after losing his seat, Hon Kagabo announced that the services would no longer be offered free of charge; he explained that for the last 5 years he had been able to subsidize the programs using his parliamentary salary and allowances, and now without that income, sustaining them would be financially impossible for him.
” I am not the government and i cannot continue offering free services because even the government itself cannot offer such services ” Kagabo emphasized in his words
