The biggest chunk of the NG- CDF allocation will go bursaries and building laboratories for Junior secondary schools.”Hon. Mutuse added:

I will also make sure locals feel the socio- economic impact engaged in the procurement and other processes. Similarly, I will also play my oversight role to make ensure accountability and value for money.”
