Rubirizi | The people of Kikuba village in Ndekye ward, Rubirizi district, are celebrating not just a new water project, but the leadership of Bunyaruguru’s re-elected Member of Parliament, Cadet Benjamin Buturo.
Cadet Buturo is a man whose unmatched experience, generosity, and national influence are transforming lives across the constituency.
This latest clean water project, worth over shs6 million, is only one of many initiatives he has personally funded to ensure his people have access to safe water.
Unlike many politicians who wait for government allocations, Cadet has repeatedly dipped into his own pocket to meet urgent community needs.
His commitment is proof that Bunyaruguru chose wisely when they entrusted their future to an MP with both a good heart and vast connections at home and nationally, one joyful resident says.
These residents, led by Tumwesigye Mangara and Kasande Merab, also praised the project as life-saving.
For years, families risked their lives fetching water from Lake Kigezi, and children missed school as women walked kilometers for water.
Today, thanks to Cadet’s vision, those struggles are ending. “Hon. Cadet has given us life,” one resident declared, echoing the gratitude of hundreds who now see hope restored.
Local leaders, including Tugume Muzafaru, emphasised that the project will improve health, sanitation, and even support small-scale farming.
He urged residents to protect the facility, recognising it as “a cornerstone of Bunyaruguru’s development journey.”
MP Buturo, fresh from his swearing-in, reaffirmed his pledge to end water scarcity and crisis in Bunyaruguru, making it clear that this is only the beginning.
With his strong ties to development partners, his national and international networks, and his closeness to the President and the President’s son, Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba, who is also the Chief of Defense Forces, Bunyaruguru is uniquely positioned to attract more projects, more investment, and more opportunities.
“This is the advantage of electing an experienced MP with influence beyond the constituency. Cadet’s leadership ensures Bunyaruguru will not be left behind in Uganda’s development agenda,” a voter said.
“His people are not just represented in Parliament – they are represented at the highest levels of power,” he added.
One community elder who travelled from a neighboring Rutoto sub-county put it, “We did not just elect a man; we elected a bridge to opportunity.”
