Ntungamo parish is not yet part of Bushneyui Ishaka municipality, the Bushenyi Ishaka Member of Parliament has revealed.
Gordon Arinda Cowboy was speaking during a special council meeting with the minister of Local Government Rapheal Magyezi on Friday 6th March 2020.
Cowboy said Ntungamo parish in Nyakabnirizi division is still part of Igara East because parliament has not yet confirmed the request to shift it To Bushenyi Ishaka Municiplaity as alleged by some political leaders.
Commenting on the issue, the Minister for Local government Hon Raphael Magyezi said the people should wait until parliament approves shifting Ntungamo parish from Igara to municipality.

The function of welcoming the new ward was attended by several people including, Marvin Baryaruha, technical staff Nyakabirizi Division, Deputy town clerk, speaker Twijukye Makayi Nyakabirizi division and other stake holders at large.
