The government boss visited successful farmer Lillian Nagawa at her home in Wakiso District on Wednesday. He watched her thriving chicken and goat business that started with just one million shillings from the program. The president decided urban parishes deserve more money because they have way more people than rural villages. Each parish currently gets 100 million shillings yearly but Museveni wants to boost that amount for crowded areas. Nagawa impressed the president by turning her small loan into a booming farm business with over 200 chickens and six goats. She originally tried pig farming but switched to poultry when disease killed her animals. The smart businesswoman made 1.6 million shillings selling chickens during Eid celebrations and wants to expand to 20,000 birds. Museveni was thrilled with her success story and handed her 10 million shillings as a bonus reward. He also promised to build her a modern chicken house and gave cash to ten other local farmers. The president believes the development program will create serious wealth for ordinary Ugandans over the next decade. He warned people against letting corrupt officials steal their parish money and urged communities to protect their funds. Museveni explained that infrastructure alone cannot lift people out of poverty and stressed the importance of individual wealth creation. The government leader wants citizens to focus on making money through farming, services and manufacturing businesses. [/QUOTE]
