President Yoweri Museveni has assured the people\nof Greater Mubende area in Central Uganda that the government will help them to\nresolve rampant land disputes in their areas saying that what the landlords are\ncurrently doing in causing evictions of tenants is illegal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDuring the protracted armed people\u2019s liberation\nstruggle, most of the landlords run away. tThey came back because NRM brought\npeace. They didn\u2019t do what we advised them not to; collecting excessive rent\nand not to evict people. But we can come in and resolve all those bad things,\u201d\nhe said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The President was today speaking during the meeting\nof Greater Mubende leaders at St. Peter\u2019s Technical School in Kyatelekera Sub-County\nin Mubende Municipality. The districts that form Greater Mubende include\nKiboga, Kyankwanzi, Kassanda, Mityana and Mubende.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
President Museveni is currently on a countrywide\ntour to sensitise leaders on how to help their people to fight poverty through\nmodern farming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Regarding wealth and job creation, President\nMuseveni pointed out that lack of prioritization and extravagance are some of\nthe factors that impede development in Uganda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWhat is disturbing Ugandans are three things:\nsleeping all the time, lack of prioritization and extravagance by organising\nexpensive parties,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said that NRM has achieved 62% of its\nManifesto. However, he added a big number of Ugandans still practice substance\nfarming which, he said, still remains a big challenge for people to meet modern\ndemands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cPeople have remained in subsistence farming yet\nwe are in the modern times that need money,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He emphasized the need for the people of Uganda to focus on enterprise selection adding that those with small land holdings, should concentrate on intensive farming like growing fruits, poultry and piggery activities, among others, to increase house hold incomes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
He also appealed to the people to desist from wetland destruction by cultivating in them but use their periphery for fish farming. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The President advised the people of Greater\nMubende in particular to stop the practice of family property fragmentation through\narchaic inheritance rites. He advised that family members should instead form\nfamily companies where they get shares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On development, President Museveni noted that the people of Mubende are witnesses of the building of the road network in the area and cited the Kakumiro \u2013 Kagadi road that is under construction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
He added that the Masindi \u2013 Kigumba and Kakumiro \u2013 Buhimba roads will be bituminised. On their part, Greater Mubende leaders, in their resolution that was read out by the NRM Chairperson of Mubende, Hon. Maj. Kakooza Joseph and seconded by all the NRM Chairpersons of Greater Mubende, endorsed President Museveni as the NRM sole candidate for 2021 elections. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
