President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has said he’s tired of begging parliament to do its work of appropriating government funds.
Speaking yesterday at Ngoma Government Farm in Luweero district, while closing a three-week retreat of Members of Parliament elected on the National Resistance Movement ticket, Museveni said the time of begging parliament to fund priority areas is over. The retreat that started on April 7 was attended by only the newly elected members of Parliament and members of the NRM’s central executive committee.
CUE. M7 BEGGING ENG.
Museveni’s statement followed a presentation by Dr Margret Kahwa, a Makerere University professor who discovered a vaccine that prevents ticks in cattle. In her presentation, Kahwa asked the government to help her fund her project to build a factory that will manufacture the vaccine in Uganda. She said she needs 22 billion Shillings to accomplish the task.
I won’t keep begging MPs to support govt programs- Museveni
