I was in Kamuli District where I handed over 472 machines to 190 youth groups with a membership of 3,228 youth, under the Uganda Green Jobs Programme organised by the Ministry of Gender and supported by Rt. Hon. Rebecca Kadaga.

They included sewing machines, gadgets for dressing hair, generators, electric ovens, car washing equipment, milling and paver machines plus computers.

I congratulate Rt. Hon. Kadaga on her recent victories in the NRM party elections. I am glad that she is making a case for more resources to these youth empowerment schemes. This has been my position always and hope Parliament will fully back me.
