IMPORTANCE OF COUNCIL FOLLOW-UP AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT COMMITTEES:

When the state invest money to better our situation at the grassroots and we do not follow-up the project during execution, such projects are abandoned and we suffer the consequences. Hence our development is retarded. Follow up is a continuous and regular process of collection and treatment of information. We do follow-up to ensure:

• That works are carried out in conformity with the technical specifications.
• That the structures realized will be functional.
• The sustainability of the structure.
• The functioning of the structure so as to put the realized structure to the right use
  (when purpose is not known abuse can not be avoided).
