Prime Minister Robina Nabbanja of Uganda has announced plans to prioritize investment in the country's youth, particularly those who have undergone training at the Presidential Skilling Hubs.
Addressing the graduating youth, Prime Minister Nabbanja cautioned against resorting to money lenders, warning that they could exploit and hinder their aspirations. "The government is going to be intentional on most of the government programs to ensure they directly benefit the youth," she affirmed. Furthermore, Barekye urged the government to consider facilitating further skills development for youth who have completed the Presidential Skilling Initiative, suggesting opportunities for upgrading skills at institutions like the Kigumba Petroleum Institute to tap into the potential of the oil and gas sector.
