FOREWORD 

The Ibanda Municipal Council profile for the year 2023 is a document that was prepared through technical and other stakeholder involvement. Ibanda Municipal Council is one of the competitive and attractive business centres due to its location whereby it borders with Ibanda District Lower Local Governments of Igorora Town

Council in the South – East, Sub-Counties of Kikyenkye in the East, Kijonjo in the North – West and Ishongororo Town Council in the North. It also boarders Kanoni SubCounty of Kazo District in the East and Kicheche Sub County and Kabujogera Town Council of Kitagwenda District in the West. 

The municipality hosts Ibanda District Local Government Headquarters and this has resulted in high rates of migration into the town in search for livelihood opportunities. It is against this background that Ibanda Municipality came into existence by an Act of Parliament on 1st July 2016, with the aim of improving service delivery to the people living and working in the area.

Ibanda Municipal Council rally’s efforts of all stakeholders towards providing holistic, efficient and quality services to the citizens through Promotion of Local Economic Development (LED), AgroIndustrialization, Education, Health and good governance in an eco-friendly environment for sustainable urban development.

The implementation of this strategy will be multi-faceted with the contribution of all the stakeholders towards development of urban areas with adequate services, effective and efficient institutions, as well as attracting investments and creating job opportunities to support the socio-economic development of Ibanda Municipality.

Finally, I would like to extend my gratitude to all technical team and other stakeholders for supporting the compilation of this profile information and call upon them to dedicate time to the attainment of the vision and make an effort to mobilize resources for the purpose. I look forward to working with Development Partners, the Community and Civil Society Organizations to support the future development of our Municipality.

For God and my Country!
