While celebrating the International Teacher\u2019s day at State House Entebbe yesterday, President Museveni said every family will get a radio that will help children who will not return to school study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMeanwhile for the rest of the children home, every family will get a radio to enable long distance learning,\u201d revealed the president before adding that;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI know many have lambasted this program, yes it might not be perfect, but has some advantages, for instance; One good teacher can be shared by many students who were not in his school. Also, it is better than dying.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The President however cautioned teachers and students who are returning to school to remain vigilant and adhere to SOPs outlined by the Ministry of Health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSpeaking about the Pandemic, in the 7 months that we have had it, I have not heard that a child has died from Corona Virus. Some may have got pregnant which is indeed terrible, but at least they did not die, death is irreversible,\u201d Said the president.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
President Museveni bragged that according to his understanding, Uganda is the number one country when it comes to controlling COVID-19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThat said, I think Uganda is number 1 in the whole world in the fight against COVID 19 according to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cLANCET was comparing Uganda to South Korea. We have land borders which are difficult to manage yet South Korea is surrounded by water and North Korea where no one can cross to and from there.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
