Welcome to the September 2024 edition of The Presidency, your trusted source for updates on the nation’s progress under the leadership of President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni.
This month, we delve into key milestones in governance, economic development, and social transformation as Uganda continues on its journey toward greater prosperity and stability.
In September, President Museveni reinforced his vision of free education for all, urging Ugandans to embrace the government’s strategy to ensure every child has access to affordable schooling. This initiative remains central to the government’s effort to uplift communities and combat dropout rates, ensuring that every Ugandan child has a chance at a brighter future.
The fight against corruption also took centre stage this month, as the President called on criminal investigators to strengthen their ties with local communities. By empowering citizens to expose corruption, especially where public resources are concerned, the government remains steadfast in its mission to foster transparency and accountability.
Furthermore, President Museveni fulfilled his pledge to empower urban youth through economic initiatives, providing motorcycles and financial support to ghetto youth SACCOs in the Kampala metropolitan area. This is part of the government’s broader commitment to inclusivity and uplifting marginalised communities, ensuring every Ugandan has the opportunity to thrive.
In addition to these accomplishments, September saw key dialogues on enhancing public service efficiency, showcasing Uganda’s move toward a more organised, effective, and resource-conscious governance structure. The President’s engagements with various groups, from local government leaders to youth innovators, underline the government’s focus on sustainable growth, innovation, and economic transformation.
As you explore this edition, we hope you are inspired by the strides made across various sectors, from public service reforms to community-based economic empowerment. Together, we can work towards a future where prosperity and unity define Uganda’s national landscape.
