Create Wealth, Stop Talking About Gov’t Programs – M7

President Museveni has told Ugandan to create wealth and stop talking about government programs like Infrastructure.

“Make sure that each household has wealth and stop wasting time talking about government programmes that include infrastructure,” said President Museveni.

Museveni revealed this while addressing a public rally at Apopong Primary School in Apopong Sub-County in Agule County Pallisa district On Monday evening.

The President noted that much as cotton and maize generate money, the two crops should be left to people who own huge chunks of land.

He said people like those in Pallisa whose average land holding is only 2.5 acres, must concentrate on crops that bring high returns like oranges, mangoes, coffee and at the backyard do poultry, piggery, fish and dairy activities as well as mushroom farming.

The President encouraged the people of Pallisa district to utilize Army Officers sent to their area to oversee the ‘Operation Wealth Creation’ programme in order to eradicate poverty in their homes.

He told the gathering that funds that were squandered by NAADS officials, will now be used by the Army Officers to buy seedlings that will be distributed to people free of charge.
