this is transformative leadership. Building Uganda's capacity to produce vaccines locally is a major step towards scientific independence, improved public health, and national resilience. We commend your vision.
I welcomed the establishment of the HUVET Bio-Science Park, led by Eng. Hashem Azimi. This initiative will play an important role in advancing Uganda’s journey towards local vaccine production, veterinary biotechnology, and scientific innovation, while reducing our dependence on imported vaccines and other biological products.
Uganda must build the capacity to produce what we need. Vaccine sovereignty and our ambition to become a regional leader in biotechnology are important for our strategic interests. I welcome this investment, and the Government will support this initiative.

@KagutaMuseveni Excellent leadership, Your Excellency. Coffee should no longer leave Uganda in its raw form. Processing it locally will unlock greater wealth for our farmers and strengthen our economy.

I met a delegation from Nonda Coffee Park led by Mr. Tonny Miiro Kibuuka, who briefed me on their plans to establish a coffee processing and value addition facility. I welcome this investment because it is exactly what we have always been advocating for.
Uganda should not continue exporting raw coffee. We must add value before export so that we create jobs, increase household incomes and earn more foreign exchange.
The government will support this initiative and mobilise our coffee farmers to produce more in preparation for the increased demand. I congratulate them and wish them good luck.
@KagutaMuseveni Thank you, Your Excellency, for consistently championing African solidarity and self-determination. Supporting the relocation of the OACPS headquarters reflects a commitment to ensuring African institutions are driven by the interests of their own people.

Today at State House Entebbe, I welcomed H.E. Moussa Saleh Batraki, Secretary General of the Organization of African, Caribbean and Pacific States (OACPS). I told him that Africans in the Caribbean and the indigenous peoples of the Pacific are part of our extended African family. I also support the proposal to relocate the OACPS headquarters from Europe, it would strengthen the Organisation’s independence and better reflect the interests of its member states. Uganda is ready to support this effort and deepen cooperation with the OACPS.
@KagutaMuseveni this is a proud moment for Uganda and Africa. Thank you for believing in local talent and creating an environment where Ugandan innovation can thrive.
This afternoon, I hosted the Presidential Pearl to Cape Expedition 2025 Homecoming Luncheon to celebrate the successful journey of the Kayoola E-Coach from Uganda to South Africa and back. I congratulate the Kiira Motors team on this historic achievement, which demonstrates that Africa can design, manufacture and export its own technology.
Before colonialism, our people had an integrated economy built on artisans and indigenous knowledge. Our task now is to restore that foundation through modern industrialization. I have directed the relevant Ministries to move with speed, secure financing, guarantee off-take for locally manufactured buses, and support battery production. We must stop working slowly. Uganda’s industrial transformation cannot wait.
@KagutaMuseveni we appreciate your proactive approach to public health and regional cooperation. Sharing Uganda's expertise in containing Ebola and proposing treatment centres within eastern DRC is a testament to your foresight and commitment to protecting lives across Africa.

This evening at State House Entebbe, I met H.E. Dr. Kamba Mulanda Samuel Roger, the DRC Minister of Public Health, who delivered a special message from President Félix Tshisekedi on the Ebola outbreak. I reaffirmed Uganda’s readiness to support our brothers and sisters in the DRC through treatment, technical expertise and close regional cooperation.
Uganda contained its recent Ebola cases through early detection, treatment and strict public health measures. I also proposed establishing Ebola treatment centres inside eastern DRC to ensure early treatment closer to the affected communities and help contain the disease at its source.
@KagutaMuseveni Your Excellency, your compassion and inclusive leadership are truly commendable. Thank you for welcoming back our fellow Ugandans with practical solutions that empower them through wealth creation, skills, and economic opportunities.

Today in Kyankwanzi, I met Ugandans who returned from South Africa. I reiterated that the NRM has consistently fought poverty through education, wealth creation and job creation. I encouraged them, especially the youth, to embrace commercial agriculture, manufacturing, services and ICT, where the greatest opportunities lie. The Government will support their reintegration, including strengthening their SACCO.
@KagutaMuseveni Well done to all the graduates! Your Excellency's emphasis on patriotism, discipline, and strategic leadership will continue to strengthen our security institutions and inspire a new generation of leaders dedicated to Uganda's peace, stability, and socio-economic transformation.

Yesterday at State House Entebbe, I delivered a Lecture of Opportunity to student officers from the War College of Mali. I emphasised that Africa’s prosperity lies in production, value addition and expanding our markets through economic integration.
I also stressed that the continent must build the capacity to defend its interests on land, in the air, at sea and in space, while remaining committed to Pan-Africanism, patriotism and African solutions to African problems.
@KagutaMuseveni Dialogue, mutual respect, and understanding remain the strongest foundation for lasting solutions. Uganda continues to set a remarkable example through its generosity in hosting refugees with dignity and compassion.

Today at State House Entebbe, I met H.E. Pekka Haavisto, the United Nations Secretary-General’s Personal Envoy for Sudan. We discussed the conflict in Sudan and the wider region.
I reiterated that many of these crises stem from ideological mistakes and the failure to respect the identities of people in multinational states. Sustainable peace can only come through dialogue, not force. I also reaffirmed Uganda’s commitment to hosting refugees, who are our people and continue to contribute to our country’s development.
African solidarity is the foundation of a stronger and more influential continent. Thank you, Your Excellency, for championing unity and supporting Africa's shared aspirations.

Today at Kisozi Farm, I met H.E. Téte António, Angola’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, who delivered a special message from H.E. President João Lourenço. We discussed matters of mutual interest, including Angola’s candidature of Josefa Sacko for the position of FAO Director-General.
We shall support Angola’s candidature because African solidarity is crucial in advancing our shared interests. Africans must continue standing together and supporting one another on issues of strategic importance to our continent.
