Janet Museveni praised Gomba lawmaker Sylvia Nayebale for organizing local women into saving groups. The First Lady sent Deputy Speaker Thomas Tayebwa to represent her at two events on Friday. He first visited Ngomanene Primary School to open a new building from the Kelim Foundation. He later attended a women's day celebration where a new agricultural SACCO was launched at Kabulasoke.
The First Lady believes these savings groups can help women escape poverty. She told Gomba women to learn from Bangladeshi women, who were poor, uneducated women created the successful Grameen Bank. She referenced the Bible story about talents, urging women to manage their resources carefully. She thinks following these principles will help their SACCO grow strong like Grameen. She also thanked Dr. Kalule for supporting children's education.
