Museveni proposes 49-year leases to resolve the Nakaseke forest land dispute.
 
Nakaseke - President Yoweri Museveni on Tuesday campaigned in Nakaseke District, where he urged farmers to adopt modern farming practices, including growing pastures, to improve productivity and household incomes.
Addressing a rally at Nakaseke District Headquarters grounds in Butalangu, Museveni said many farmers were underutilizing their small pieces of land, yet they could achieve higher yields through better planning and pasture management.
“Instead of moving long distances in search of pasture, farmers can grow pastures at home and produce enough food for their animals,” Museveni said. He added that farmers with limited land should keep fewer animals, noting that one acre can support up to eight cows if properly managed.

Mps to elect speaker before next sitting

What you need to know:

  • By dying before the 10 month in office, Oulanyah, a former Uganda Peoples Congress (UPC) adherent-turned-NRM diehard, becomes the shortest-serving speaker of Uganda’s Parliament.

Article 82(4) provides that subject to Clause (4) of Article 81 of this Constitution, “no business shall be transacted in Parliament other than an election to the office of Speaker at any time that office is vacant”.
Clause 4 of Article 81 relates to incoming lawmakers taking oaths of office, and of Member of Parliament, in order to be eligible to vote, and be voted, as Speaker.
