KAMPALA: The President of the People’s Republic of China Xi Jinping has congratulated the President-Elect Yoweri Kaguta Museveni on his re-election and said he believes that under his leadership, Uganda will continue to make even greater achievements in materializing her vision on national development.

On behalf of the Chinese government and the Chinese people and in my own name, I wish to extend our sincere congratulations and best wishes to you. I believe that under your leadership, Uganda will continue to make even greater achievements in materializing her vision on national development,” he said.
President Jinping said China and Uganda share traditional friendship.
“We have all along enjoyed mutual support and trust and plenty of cooperation. Since the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic, the two countries have been tiding over the difficulty together, supporting each other, thus composing a chapter of fighting the pandemic in friendship and solidarity. I attach great importance to developing China-Uganda relations and wish to work with you to promote China-Uganda Comprehensive Cooperation partnership for new achievements so as to better our two countries and peoples,” he said.

The Board Chairperson of the Presidential CEO Forum Ms. Barbara Mulwana said the extension of Museveni’s mandate as the President of Uganda and the NRM party whose members were overwhelmingly voted into the next parliament by the people of Uganda is a vote of confidence in the ideals espoused by Museveni and the party.
“As a business leader, I am confident that we shall continue to enjoy peace and stability and a conducive business environment geared at facilitating investment in the country and that we shall be able to build on the tremendous progress achieved over the last five years,” she said.

“Your dynamic and conducive leadership has greatly steered the country in achieving tangible growth as well as promoting democratic governance. The union of Muslim Councils is highly indebted to your individual efforts and those of government that have transformed our dear country and created sustainable peace, harmony, development and freedom in Uganda in addition to promoting the integration of East Africa and Africa,” he said.
