The leadership of the Minority caucus in Parliament has directed all its members to decline an offer from ICT Company, RLG to construct bore holes in their constituencies.

RLG wrote to Parliament requesting that MP’s select places of their choice for the citing of a borehole.

However, in an interview with Citi News, Deputy Minority Leader, Dominic Nitiwul said the directive came after the Minority caucus held a meeting last Thursday to deliberate on the matter.

“The issue was very clear that the Minority had raised very serious issues during the budget debate that had to do with this company and we felt that we should hold on to the acceptance of the offer until those issues are cleared.”

He clarified that the minority is not against any individual who is willing to help MPs to develop their constituencies but “it is not every offer that an individual will take.”
