Speaking at the installation ceremony, the State Minister for Primary Health Care at the Ministry of Health, Margaret Muhanga Commended the outstanding work of the Rotary Club in the country, especially regarding health issues.
She urged Dr Olaro to strive to fulfill his mission and provide unique services to the people before handing over the five-million cheque.
