MUSEVENOMICS 2025

 

UGANDA'S ECONOMIC FUTURE TAKES CENTER STAGE

watchdoguganda.com,May 30, 2025 ][ KAMPALA, Uganda — The Musevenomics Conference 2025, a landmark two-day event, commenced on May 29 at the upscale Mestil Hotel & Residences in Kampala, convening policymakers, economists, and business leaders to shape Uganda’s economic future. Organized by the Uganda Development Forum (UDF) and partners under the theme “Sustaining Musevenomics: Navigating Uganda’s Economic Future in a Disrupted World,” the conference dissects President Yoweri Museveni’s economic philosophy, aiming to align it with Uganda’s Vision 2040 and the National Development Plan IV. With sessions on industrialization, value addition, and inclusive growth, the event seeks to deliver actionable policy recommendations for sustainable development.

The #Musevenomics 2025 Conference is underway at Mestil Hotel,Kampala (May29-30, 2025). The event brings together stakeholders from the Government, Private Sector, and Civil Society to discuss Uganda,s Economic Transformation.

The opening session, chaired by Prof. Augustus Nuwagaba, Deputy Governor of the Bank of Uganda, featured Finance Minister Matia Kasaija and UDF chairperson Gen. Caleb Akandwanaho (Salim Saleh). Dr. Fred Muhumuza, Director of the Economic Forum at Makerere University Business School, delivered a keynote tracing Museveni’s 10-Point Programme, highlighting its focus on education, agriculture, and security since 1986. “Musevenomics is pragmatic, people-centered growth,” Muhumuza stated, emphasizing its role in Uganda’s transformation from a low-income to a middle-income economy.

Day one explored Uganda’s economic opportunities, including booming coffee and gold exports, rising remittances, and oil sector investments. Speakers also tackled challenges like regional instability, global trade disruptions, and declining foreign aid. Gen. Saleh spotlighted the Parish Development Model (PDM), noting that by April 2025, 10,450 of Uganda’s 10,595 parishes received 200 million shillings each for agriculture and animal husbandry, fostering a monetized rural economy. “This is Musevenomics at work—empowering communities,” he said, linking it to Vision 2040’s middle-income goal.

The conference’s impact lies in its ability to bridge policy and practice. Discussions on industrialization highlighted Uganda’s stable macroeconomic conditions and UPDF-led infrastructure projects, such as roads and schools, aligning with Musevenomics’ globalized vision. Dr. Patrick B. Birungi emphasized value addition in agriculture, noting that coffee exports have nearly doubled since 2019. Private sector attendees, like Kampala entrepreneur Sarah Nakimuli, praised the platform’s collaborative spirit. “This is where we align our businesses with national goals,” she said.

Digital displays showcased Musevenomics successes, from rural electrification to agro-processing hubs, while panels addressed global disruptions like supply chain issues and health threats, including HIV/AIDS and Ebola. The conference aims to deepen understanding of Musevenomics, assess its relevance in a volatile global economy, and develop a roadmap for socio-economic transformation. Organizers committed to sharing comprehensive session documentation within two weeks and publishing a scholarly analysis of Musevenomics’ applications across sectors.

President Museveni will deliver the closing keynote on May 30, expected to outline bold policy directions. Social media on X reflects strong public engagement, with users like

@MaamaKampala21 tweeting, “#Musevenomics2025 is shaping Uganda’s future with a powerful lineup.” However, some posts question whether Musevenomics can address youth unemployment and corruption without systemic reforms, highlighting a divide in public sentiment.

By convening Uganda’s top minds, the Musevenomics Conference at Mestil Hotel is more than a policy forum—it’s a catalyst for innovation. As Uganda navigates global economic challenges, the event underscores the NRM’s vision for a prosperous, self-reliant nation, setting the stage for impactful policies ahead of the 2026 elections.

UGANDA: SOROTI DISTRICT HOSTS THE INTERNATIONAL YOUTH DAY CELEBRATIONS – 2024

Corruption: You Don’t Have to Go on the Streets and Riot, Museveni Tells Activists

Theme: “Skills Development for enhancement of youth opportunities”

chimpreports.com,August 12, 2024, 10:36PM | The President made the remarks today while officiating at the International Youth Day Celebrations held at Soroti Core Primary Teachers' College, Soroti District.

President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has reiterated his call to the youths to fight corruption through proper channels.

“Avoid and fight corruption. You don’t have to go on the streets and riot, you fight corruption by following up government money and know how it’s being spent. Know the figures and in case there’s some misappropriation, write and report to the RDC, if the RDC doesn’t act, we have got other channels,” he said.

The President made the remarks today while officiating at the International Youth Day Celebrations held at Soroti Core Primary Teachers’ College, Soroti District. The celebrations ran under the theme: “Skills Development for enhancement of youth opportunities”.

The International Youth Day is commemorated every year on 12 August, bringing youth issues to the attention of the international community and celebrating the potential of youths as partners in today’s global society.

President Museveni reassured Ugandans that corruption is easy to be dealt with as long as they work together.

“We can finish these corrupt people, they are not a big problem. All we need are facts,” he said.

The President also urged the youths and activists to insist on free education in government schools. According to President Museveni, Ugandans have refused to implement the program yet it would have helped the whole country.

“When we introduced it, we knew why we introduced it. In 1958, when we were in our area of Kyamate, Ntungamo area, the people who went to Mbarara High School were like four or five from the whole area. Many children were not going to school at all but even those who went, very few would proceed beyond Primary Six. That’s what we wanted to solve. In my view, we need the implementation of free education in government primary and Secondary schools. Those who are rich can send their children to private schools,” he explained.

“Why have leaders kept on bringing back charges in UPE schools? According to the figures I have, the children in primary schools are 11 million but the ones in secondary schools are 1.7 million. Yet the years of primary and the years of secondary are almost the same. It’s 7 years for primary and 6 for secondary. Why do you have 11 million learners in Primary and 1.7 million in secondary, where have the 9.3 million learners gone? You people, you all come from villages, go back and check how many people dropped out of school in each area.”

On the other hand, President Museveni advised the school going children to work with their parents during holidays to stabilise their homestead income.

“Many people don’t know that some of us were influenced by the way we grew up. Like in my case I was a wealth creator from the age of 4. Age of 4 my job was to look after the young cows. By the age of 8, I was looking after the big cows. The children in holidays should participate in wealth creation,” he said.

“I would advise the parents not to over exploit the children like we were exploited. My children and grandchildren now don’t have the same pressure like I had.”

The President further emphasised that when children are still in the school system, they should always participate in sports and exercises so that they are fit. He also advised that they should spend their youthful years doing useful things.

“Participate in spiritual development through religious programs so that you have discipline and fear God. We also need to audit the cultures and we see what we can recommend for our children. Some of the cultures for our people were not good, like mistreatment of women.”

Furthermore, President Museveni encouraged the youths to embrace and understand the four principles of the National Resistance Movement (NRM) of Patriotism, Pan-Africanism, Socio-economic Transformation and Democracy for their prosperity.

“After you have gone through the school system, you should engage in wealth creation through the four sectors of the economy which include commercial agriculture, manufacturing and artisanship, services and ICT. Being a political leader or administrator is also part of the services sector but the jobs there are few. So the government jobs are not enough but the services jobs in the private sector are much more.”

The President also cautioned the youths against environmental degradation.

“The misuse of swamps must stop. The swamps are for water to feed the dry land.”

On the other hand, President Museveni commended the people of Teso for fighting poverty through commercial agriculture.

“I can see most of the people in Teso are now out of the grass thatched houses and most of them are growing citrus fruits. I have put up new people to look after the factory and we shall stabilise the market.”

The Minister of Gender, Labour and Social Development, Hon. Betty Amongi informed the President that the theme of the celebrations resonates with the fact that skills are important for the realisation of opportunities of the youths, and it addresses the high numbers of the youths who are not in employment, not in school and not in the formal sector.

“The recent National Population and Housing Census of 2024 put the youths between 18 to 30 years at 10.4 million, representing 22.6 percent. Youths between 30 to 34 years are 2.8 million, constituting 6 percent. Children between 0 to 17 years are 23.1 million which constitute 50.2 percent. This makes Uganda one of the youngest and most rapidly growing populations in the world, with about 4 percent population growth and 78.8 percent of Uganda’s population are now under the age of 35,” she said.

The Minister also decried the lack of skills and competence among the youths, saying the factors deter them from effectively entering the job market.

“More than 1 million young people enter the job market every year. This presents both a huge opportunity but also a challenge. The 2021 Uganda National Labour Force Survey showed that employers across formal and informal sectors in Uganda identified lack of practical, digital entrepreneurship skills as well as soft skills such as managerial, communication, social, emotional as limiting most youths from entering the job market,” she noted.

“They also assert that our education system is not fully aligned with the Labour force needs leading to a mismatch of skills and competence for employability.”

The Minister of State for the Youth and Children Affairs, Hon. Balaam Barugahara assured the youths that the government is working around the clock to ensure that the challenge of unemployment among them is dealt with.

“Your Excellency, investing in youth skills development is crucial. Such investment supports national peace and stability, enhances resilience and promotes social transformation,” he noted.

The UN Resident Coordinator in Uganda, Ms. Susan Ngongi Namondo called for renewed efforts to ensure that the 73 percent of Ugandans under the age of 30 years are engaged in productive adulthood.

“We have to redouble efforts to ensure that there’s hope across the board,” she said.

The Ambassador of Denmark to Uganda, H.E Signe Winding Albjerg said the Youth Day commemoration was very vital because it aims at celebrating the contribution of the youth towards development especially in leading digital adoption and innovation across the globe.

“Your Excellency, this day also reminds us all to highlight the challenges that young people face in order to be able to realise their potential. On this day, we should challenge ourselves to do more and better for the youths,” she said.

The Chairperson of the National Youth Council-Uganda, Mr. Jacob Eyeru thanked the President for guiding the youth to the right path of attaining education and creating jobs.

“The NRM government also dealt with the issue of our health through immunisation. Now we are dealing with the issue of socio-economic transformation,” he said.

He also commended President Museveni for setting up the skilling hubs that impart skills to the youths across Uganda. This, he said, has helped to deal with youth unemployment in the country.

The event was also attended by the Vice President H.E Jessica Alupo, Ministers, Members of the Diplomatic Corps, Members of Parliament, among others.

Industrialists Demand For own bank

DAY ONE:

DAY TWO:

independent.co.ug, May 9, 2024 | Kampala, Uganda | THE INDEPENDENT | Uganda’s industrialists, supported by financial institutions, have decided to lead efforts towards the establishment of an industrial bank.

The proposed Uganda National Industrial Bank would serve to reduce the cost of Finance that the private sector persistently fronts as the major challenge to its growth.

This is one of the resolutions from the just-ended two-day Financial Symposium and Exhibition organised by the Uganda Manufactures Association (UMA) at The Lugogo show grounds.

The idea came after the manufacturers realised that all the available sources of funds were not adequately and comprehensively serving their needs.

Francis Ogwang, the Uganda Country Manager, East African Development Bank , agreed with the manufacturers that there was need for other alternatives, adding that many countries have dedicated banks for the different major sectors like agriculture, industry, manufacturing and international trade.

He said that while he believed in a private sector led economic growth, there is need for more government intervention in terms of finance, saying that there should be at least 1 billion dollars ready for lending to the private sector.

Speaking about the the uniqueness from other available long-term lenders like the Uganda Development Bank, Ogwang said an industrial bank should not be under the regulation of the central bank.

He said that because of the strict nature needed by the central bank to control the operations of commercial banks, the industrial bank would not have enough space to sustainably serve its purpose.

An industrial bank, according to Ogwang, is necessary because it would offer both financial, advisory and business incubation services to SMEs and Large industries and mobilise capital specifically dedicated to industrial investments. Other reasons fronted included the ability to ease the competition for the limited Financial resource between the government and private sector and between traders and industrialists.

The mobilisation of cheaper finances would be possible because the industrial bank would be able to have financing partners like the International Finance Corporation, Afrexim Bank, African Development Bank among others, according to Ogwang.

The manufacturers expressed discontent at the available sources of finance which they said were not responsive to their needs.

They also dismissed the government intervention of the Small Businesses Recovery Fund that was launched two years ago as a relief package for enterprises hit by COVID-19. UMA Executive Director, Dr. Ezra Muhumuza Rubanda, said there was a big problem with the banks mandated to manage the funds, accusing the institutions of “hiding” information about the project and instead fronting their own expensive products.

The recovery fund carries a 10 percent interest, while the agriculture credit facility attracts 12 percent, both far lower than the average 17 percent set by the commercial banks.

Alex Lwanja, the Director in charge of the SBRF and the Agriculture Credit Facility at the Bank of Uganda, said while the ACF had performed well with almost 800 billion shillings disbursed since 2011, the SBRF had only lent out just more than 13 billion shillings out of the 200 billion set aside. He put the blame for the low uptake on the strict conditions set by the ministry of finance, but added that they have been pushing for the revision and several of the conditions have now been amended.

These include opening up the fund to businesses that were established after the COVID-19 outbreak, the number of employees a beneficiary should be employing as well as the maximum amount that had been ceiled at 300 million shillings.

He hoped this would attract more people to apply for the credit facility.

Lwanja also called on any entrepreneur who would be told by a bank that the ACF and the SBRF were not available at the bank, to immediately call him.

UGANDA; PRESIDENT MUSEVENI GRACES THE INTERNATIONAL LABOUR DAY CELEBRATIONS HELD IN FORT PORTAL CITY ON LABOUR DAY

Museveni Vows to Get Tough On wealth Creation Jobs

File Photo/Courtesy: His Excellent President Yoweri Museveni

ugstandard.com, May 01, 2024 | KAMPALA, UGANDA – In a marked shift in tone, President Yoweri Museveni has warned that he will no longer be polite in his approach to addressing the country’s economic challenges, particularly wealth creation and job opportunities.

Speaking during the International Labour Day celebrations, President Museveni emphasized that jobs cannot exist without wealth, and therefore, the focus should be on creating modern wealth, not traditional wealth.

“I have been polite because I didn’t want to embarrass some people. In the coming days, I will stop being polite,” he said, hinting at a more assertive approach to tackling the issues.

The President drew a distinction between the class struggle in Europe, where imperialists exploited others, and the situation in Uganda, where a collective struggle is needed to create wealth.

“The issue here is to create wealth,” he stressed, emphasizing the need for a collaborative effort to achieve economic prosperity.

This new stance is seen as a call to action for policymakers, entrepreneurs, and citizens to prioritize wealth creation and job opportunities, with the President himself taking a more decisive and assertive lead in driving this agenda.

Only time will tell what specific measures President Museveni will take to address these challenges, but one thing is clear – the days of politeness are over, and it’s time for action.
