People asked to use media to engage leaders on service delivery. By Francis Tusiime21/1/2015 Kabarole Johnston Baguma Kumaraki the Director Tooro Development Network has asked the people always to ask leaders accountability by sending their problems through the media houses. Speaking during a meeting for TRAC-Fm radio poll project said that leaders always listen to radios, read news papers. He said that when the views are sent to radios through calling in programs, sending messages they will be able to respond to the needs of people. Baguma said that this will enable leaders access the information directly while at their homes since majority can’t be reached directly. “News papers, radios publish well researched and verified information which is good for public consumption, the public should alyways use such platforms and this will help them get information “says Baguma “No leader in this country who does not read news paper or listen to the radio, therefore when the public uses the media the leaders will get the needs of the people”says Baguma Solomon Akugizibwe the communications officer Toro Dev, said that leaders always also use the media to share information to their voters so as everyone can get information. He said that the leaders should always avoid shunning from media house because they engage them on service delivery but instead always come out and explain the needs of the people.
