President Yoweri Museveni has launched the 2019 FOCAC Conference with a highlight on ways of eradicating poverty not only in Uganda but in the whole of Africa.

While addressing the conference at Speke Resort Munyonyo today, the President highlighted the major sectors of the economy that will address the problem of poverty as being commercial agriculture, Industries, services and Information Communication Technology (ICT). 

The Government of Uganda hereby strongly rejects and disabuse the renewed calculated fabrication by elements yet to be understood claiming that Uganda recently hosted a meeting for purposes of election of a committee of a shadowy rebel outfit, the Rwanda National Congress (RNC).
Uganda reiterates that it doesn't know, host, or deal in any way with such a group, a fact that has been ably communicated through the appropriate channels to the Government of the Republic of Rwanda. Uganda does not harbor any intentions or interests of destabilizing the Government of Rwanda.

President Yoweri Museveni has strongly appealed to the leadership of the Uganda Police Force to design a clear, holistic and simplistic plan that will make the Force more effective in carrying out their mandate of keeping law and order, curbing crime, protecting lives and property of all Ugandans.

President Yoweri Museveni has appealed to traditional leaders in the country to emphasize areas of prosperity, strategic security, fraternity and linkages among their subjects rather than laying emphasis more on their differences. 

President Yoweri Museveni has called on all East African Community member states to work on the fast tracking of the East African Political Federation in order to address the issue of strategic security in the region.

“Prosperity can be achieved through economic integration but when it comes to strategic security, we cannot achieve it if we remain separate countries. That is why we talk of federation so that we can have a strong centre of gravity,” he said.
