President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has today commended the Rt. Hon. Speaker of Parliament, Anita Annet Among, for her visionary leadership in transforming lives through job creation, wealth generation and service delivery in the Teso sub-region.
Speaking during a grand thanksgiving ceremony held in her honour at Bukedea District Headquarters Grounds, President Museveni celebrated the Speaker’s journey from opposition politics to national transformation under the NRM.
“Anita Among has started creating jobs. She spent quite some time in the FDC, but in 2016 she linked up with me and I invited her to Kisozi, as I often do with many leaders but only a few learn quickly and Anita is one of them,” President Museveni said.
He revealed that after visiting his ranch, the Speaker was inspired to begin her own journey in commercial agriculture.
“She asked me questions, I gave her some support, and now she is a big rancher. She owns schools and farms. She told me she employs 52 people on the farms and 110 in the schools. She is now doing three things: creating wealth, creating jobs, and providing a service.
As long as it is clean money not from corruption, God will be happy with you,” President Museveni affirmed.
