The delay by the government to release money for Kasese Industrial Park has affected the progress of completion.
In 2018, the government released 10 billion shillings to develop Kasese and Kabarole industrial parks in a bid to promote agro-industrialization in the Rwenzori region.
In March, Kasese received 4 billion shillings for construction of roads, power extension and water connection to the park located in Kahokya cell central division in Kasese Municipality.
Residents neighboring the industrial park have described the project as a security threat to their lives now that criminals are terrorizing people in the industrial park.
Mr. William Tibyata, says urgent intervention should be done by government to have investors in the industrial park that is currently abused as a grazing area in Kasese town. Mr. Tibyata one speaking..

Mupango was opprtumistic that when industries are constructed unemployment will be history. END.
