President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has on the sidelines of the NRM leadership retreat in Kyankwanzi, met the newly elected Members of Parliament from Northern Region to discuss on a point-by-point basis, issues affecting people in that region and remedies.

The members of parliament were led by the NRM Northern Uganda Vice Chairperson Hon. Jacob Olanya.

 

President Museveni who is also the Chairperson of NRM this week started meeting Members of Parliament in clusters of the regions where they hail from.  He started with Buganda and Karamoja.

 

According to the NRM Director of communication, Emmanuel Lumala Dombo, the organised meetings with the President are meant to help the members of parliament to discuss issues affecting their people without diverting the purpose of the retreat.

 

Museveni has encouraged the Members of Parliament to be vocal about the NRM achievements and government programs in their areas as well as supporting local industries to foster economic growth in Uganda.
