Today at Entebbe, I met Mr Nicolas Tamari, CEO of SUCAFINA Group, under which UGACOF LTD is operating locally. We discussed investment opportunities, particularly value addition to our coffee.
President Yoweri Museveni has commissioned a $53 million (Shs 219 billion) Russian-donated military equipment repair facility at Magamaga Cantonment in Jinja.
He has urged the UPDF to embrace AI, automation and technology transfer to boost local defence manufacturing and reduce reliance on foreign maintenance.
@KagutaMuseveni Your Excellency, the constructive engagement with European Ambassadors and investors at State House Entebbe reaffirms Ugandaβs commitment to mutually beneficial partnerships.
Last night at State House Entebbe, I met European Ambassadors and investors. I was pleased to learn that European investors are increasingly investing in Uganda, particularly in hydropower and other infrastructure projects.
I have always told our European friends that Africa is a huge market because of its rapidly growing population. This is an opportunity we must all take advantage of.
On tax incentives, I explained that our 10 year tax holiday for eligible manufacturers is meant to encourage investment, production and job creation. As our people produce and earn more, Government also collects revenue through consumer spending and income taxes.
Science and technology must underpin sovereignty. AI-enabled condition-based monitoring, automated diagnostics, and data analytics on equipment health will help our engineers move from repair to reverse engineering . Thank you Your Excellency for your visionary leadership!
This week, I commissioned military facilities and equipment at Kalama, Entebbe, Kalangalo and Magamaga under our defence cooperation with Russia.
I thank President Putin and the Russian people for this support, including the $53 million mechanised repair facility at Magamaga. We must not only acquire good equipment but also learn to maintain, repair and eventually manufacture it here. I have encouraged our military to embrace science and technology, including AI and automation, to strengthen our defence capabilities.
Our cooperation with Russia should help us build local capacity, protect our sovereignty and strengthen our ability to defend Uganda.

General @mkainerugaba is the living embodiment of MUSEVENOMICS. In 2031 he will be a practical, results-driven President who will take every principle and policy of Musevenomics and put it FULLY into work for every Ugandan.
@KatushabeJulius Stop being biased. When the High Court ruled in favour of Kira MP George Musisi (NUP) and declared him validly elected after the NRM challenger withdrew a poorly prepared petition, where were you? The court is only βdisrespectableβ when the ruling doesnβt favour your sideπ€
The journey to ending HIV/AIDS may be protracted and long but @GovUganda has put its best foot forward in combating its spread and reducing new infections!
Today, I saw condoms produced in different flavours, apple, strawberry & vanillaβ¦. one part of wider efforts to expand prevention choices !
