I think you are more ***barred word*** than anyone. Can you please read your comment again and try to make sense out of it. In effect you are saying providing the needs of the people is not important but interacting with them is more important. What a logic. What do u mean by the resources are not there. Hasn't Baumia reiterated every now and then the enormous resources our county is endowed with. Some of you when you benefit directly from the government you fail to think about the suffering of others.
@ Eiiii or whoever you are: Please stop advertising your ignorance on Governance. Do you think everything is about money? There are instances where interactions with the people is much more worthy than providing for all that they need, especially when the resources are just not there.
So how will this tour benefit the people of Northern region. Why do we always as a nation waste so much time and resources on unnecessary things that does not benefit us.
