President Yoweri Museveni spoke to the people of Kigezi at the International Community of Banyakigezi (ICOB) Convention in Kanungu District. He wants everyone to make money to fight poverty. He said they should use their land to grow crops and raise animals to sell.
The president advised on how to farm on small pieces of land. He said to grow coffee, fruits, and food crops and raise cows, pigs, chickens, and fish. This way, people can earn more money.
Mr. Museveni talked about a program called the Parish Development Model, which helps all Ugandans make money. He also warned against focusing too much on tribes, which can slow down Uganda's progress.
The president reminded people that his party, the NRM, works for everyone. They have done things like give vaccines and educate all children. He promised to build an airport in Kihihi for tourists.
Other leaders also spoke at the event. They thanked President Museveni for his work, saying he has helped Uganda grow and become more peaceful. They appreciated the roads he had built in the region.
The ICOB group supports the president's goals. They want to help transform the people of Kigezi. Many important people came to the convention to discuss these ideas.
