On my way to Jinja today, Maama Janet and I stopped in Nyenga, Buikwe District and interacted with the wananchi, many of whom were children. It was disturbing to find out that many of these children are not in school because teachers have expelled them due to nonpayment of fees.
The NRM government introduced UPE in 1997, but the headteachers and PTA are abusing it. If the capitation grant is not sufficient, they should inform us so that we can provide additional funding instead of sending these children out of school. Therefore, in the coming financial year or the one after, we will initiate a new campaign on this issue.
Yet another exciting @ExploreUganda experience. From 13th-17th Feb 2024,come journey with us as we #ExploreBusoga the charm,culture & beauty of the City of Jinja & entire Busoga region, a perfect place to soak in some breathtaking scenery & engage in unforgettable adventure!

I closed the Third South Summit of the Group of 77 and China with a call on leaders in the world to support each other’s prosperity and ensure that nobody is left behind.
My one year chairmanship of the G77+China group of nations shall focus on three key issues;
1. Enabling participation of all persons in spheres of production of goods and services.
2. Enabling access to markets for ease of buying and selling of goods and services.
3. Creating enabling soft and physical infrastructure in the sectors of energy, information and technology, and transport.
There’s so much we can do together, however, prosperity cannot be achieved if the group still has pockets of insecurity as this is among the top impediments to investment.
I thank everyone who participated in these summits. The goal is shared global affluence and there is nothing we cannot achieve if we work together.
📸Sharing is caring 🇻🇨🇺🇬
