Peace Rugambwa, a senior presidential advisor for agriculture and local people, has called on marginalized groups in Kabale District to establish cooperatives as a pathway to accessing government support programs. During a Monday gathering at Kabale Municipal Stadium, Rugambwa addressed ghetto youth and sex workers, explaining that many face economic hardship due to insufficient opportunities rather than an unwillingness to work.
The advisor recommended forming Savings and Credit Cooperative Organizations to enable collective savings, credit access, and small business development. Musa Asiimwe, representing the Kabale District NRM Ghetto leadership, reported that local youth have already created an association with savings capabilities and have registered an official SACCO.
Denis Nzeirwe Ndyomugyenyi, the Kabale NRM District Chairperson and LC5 candidate, praised the resilience of ghetto youth while advocating for expanded financial empowerment and mentorship initiatives to ensure sustained progress.
