President Yoweri Museveni has appealed to all people and organisations working to promote trade and investment in Uganda to put more efforts towards uplifting the 68% of Uganda’s population who are still living the subsistence way of life so that they join money economy. He said that failure to do that would tantamount to all the country’s efforts towards promotion of trade, investment and industrialisation, not yielding meaningful results.
The President made the remarks this afternoon while closing the two-day West Nile Investment Symposium 2019 at Muni University in Arua City in West Nile Sub-Region.
