President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has today received a special
message from the President of the Republic of Djibouti, H.E Ismail Omar
Guelleh.
The message was delivered by the Special Envoy of the President of the
Republic of Djibouti, who is also the Minister of Foreign Affairs and
International Cooperation H.E Mahamoud Ali Youssouf at the State
House, Entebbe.
In the message, President Museveni was appreciated for championing
peace, security and development of infrastructure as well as advocating
for the prosperity of the people in the region.
“Uganda has been very successful in the region; in infrastructure
development such as electricity and roads. Your ideas have transformed
the economy and the people,” H.E Youssouf said.
President Museveni who warmly welcomed H.E Youssouf to Uganda,
shared his perspective, noting that the most important element is the
vision of how to create prosperity.
“In the last 60 years, our movement, which started as a student
movement, has been explaining to our people that prosperity comes
from providing goods and services. If I produce goods and services I sell
and get money and if it is done several times, I will become prosperous.
That is what shaped our thinking,” President Museveni informed the
Special Envoy.
President Museveni added that Uganda experienced the dark era where
sectarianism was promoted but the student movement opposed that
wrong ideology by strongly advocating for the interest of the people.
He pointed out that this gave birth to the core principles of patriotism,
Pan-Africanism, socio-economic transformation and democracy.
President Museveni, however, observed that the current crisis in most of
the African countries is partly because of a bad ideology based on the
politics of Identity.
“If an idea is not right it will lead to disaster,” he noted.
The Special Envoy was accompanied by H.E Abdi Mahamoud Eybe,
Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Republic of
Djibouti to Ethiopia and Permanent Representative to the African Union
(AU) and the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA).
