It was a pleasure to host and witness the signing of the treaty of accession by the Federal Republic of Somalia to the East African Community (EAC). I reiterated my remarks in Arusha, explaining the logic behind integrating the EAC. It is for the prosperity of the African people, strategic security, and the commonalities of the East African people.
Therefore, I welcome Somalia and congratulate them. I thank the Chair, His Excellency Salva Kiir, President of South Sudan, and the EAC Secretariat for choosing Uganda to host this historic occasion.
I held a meaningful discussion today at State House, Entebbe with His Highness Charles Wesley Mumbere, the Omusinga of the Rwenzururu Kingdom. I am happy that the Kingdom has outlined new objectives centred around peace, reconciliation, and socio-economic transformation, aligning perfectly with our vision and historic mission in the NRM.
These objectives were communicated to the Lukiiko during the restoration of Kingdoms, emphasising the importance of guiding our African people toward sustainable prosperity through business and strategic security. We won't compromise on this path.
I'm delighted that during our meeting, we reached an understanding that we won't repeat any regressive conflicts. Cultural heritage should continue to play a vital role, highlighting the interconnectedness of our people.
