President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has informed leaders in the Bukedi subregion that Uganda can only achieve the desired socio-economic transformation through wealth creation.
President Museveni who was on a performance assessment tour on Parish Development Model (PDM) and wealth creation in Bukedi, made the remarks on Saturday while addressing leaders from across the sub region at Butaleja District Headquarters.
According to President Museveni, the NRM government has always come up with several interventions such as the four acre-model type of farming, to help Ugandans fight poverty and create wealth.
On the other hand, President Museveni urged the people of Bukedi to start utilising wetlands well by shifting from rice growing in the swamps to fish farming at the edges of the wetlands.
President Museveni also emphasised irrigation to increase productivity.
