He called upon the local leadership and their district land boards to join the ongoing efforts to protect government assets.
“Unscrupulous people are conniving with some officials to steal corporation property. Please, work with us to protect these assets and serve our people better.” he said
Discussing integrity issues, he said that all NWSC staff receive their salaries on time. “Our customer is king and the reason we exist. Why would you ask your king for money?” he wondered.
He urged the stakeholders to be patriotic citizens. “NWSC is your service provider. Praising other utilities and institutions outside Uganda that do not serve you does you no good. Give us feedback and help us serve you better.” he said
The District Internal Security Officer (DISO) who represented the area RDC appreciated the service levels in Masaka. He commended the corporation for the good working relationship with the city leadership. “We recently had an encroacher at one of the installations. We worked closely with NWSC officials to resolve this because they work closely with us. We have built rapport” he said
Masaka LC5 Jude Mbabali applauded NWSC MD for his exemplary leadership and good people management ethics.
“I have not seen managers of big organizations coming to engage us. Infact i don’t know the leaders of some institutions yet they operate in this area. Dr. Silver engages Masaka leadership at least every year. This is the true meaning of a customer centered utility.” he saidTop Masaka City leaders with Dr.Mugisha in a meeting hall
