Met with H.E Nicolaij Peterson the Danish Ambassador to Uganda and his deputy Henric Jespersen, I received a detailed brief on current and upcoming initiatives of cooperation between our countries.
The contribution of the Danish government and people to us over the years is well appreciated and particularly the interventions towards the fight against COVID-19 are well received and I thank them.
On economic support, I welcome the low interest loan service to the agriculture sector through ABI Trust, where our farmers are accessing capital at no more than 10% interest rate.
I briefed the envoys on the proposed scientific election roadmap. Our view is that the elections can go on within the guidelines of the electoral commission and the scientists.
Concerning COVID -19 fight, led by our scientists, we are undertaking a prevention strategy and boosting immunity for the cases we have registered. We have 717 recovered as of 24th June 2020 and no death registered so far.
